Can I be the girl that you met in the coin laundry

I have become somewhat of an obsessive blog poster this will wear off once I finally get a job / start uni ... so we have at least 8 weeks worth to go as Tom just informed me we have a short life time until university starts. The best part being we seem to have been black listed as people in our classes have already started adding each other but not us, this does make me laugh to be honest.

I watched The Virgin Suicides and Amelie earlier for the ... well I've lost count of how many times actually. I don't particularily like the virgin suicides but I like the scenes and how its shot the lighting looks so serene and beautiful and obviously Amelie is just one amazing film my favourite part being when she is crying in the kitchen.

The Virgin Suicides






Amelie



which makes me want to post my favourite scene from Closer, for some reason I adore the sad scenes it's like you don't want to watch them because it's upsetting but at the same time you can't help it. I love these scenes even more after I watched a movie a few hundred times because I then know when it's coming and what my favourite parts are.
The scene in closer I adore is the part where Natalie Portman has just been left in the hotel room by Jude Law and he runs back to say he loves her and when he gets back and says it she's tells him she doesn't love him anymore, goodbye. It's the best part of the whole movie.
Natalie Portman has always been a favourite actress of mine from when I saw her in 'where the heart is' such a bad cheesy movie but when I was on holiday in florida a trailer came on the Tv for it and I made my dad take me to see it. The year after he bought the VHS for my birthday :) it's such a happy, cheesy film but I love it. So it goes without saying that I'm also fascinated with Garden State too, which is a wonderful film with an amazing soundrtack to match.






Labyrinth is always a movie I forget how much I love to watch until I come across it in my box of VHS's or its on Tv on like five afternoon movies, which are always rubbish to watch because theres too many breaks which leads me to flick channels and miss the movie I was actually watching.



I always used to have to watch the labyrinth as a child and then the dark crystal straight after they always had to be watched together, I'm not sure why, I was an odd child and I'm guessing dropped on my head a lot but it was just how I liked to watch them.

"When single shines the triple sun,
What was sundered and undone
Shall be whole, the two made one,
By Gelfling hand, or else by none."



My definate guilty pleasure movie is Now & Then based in 60s america about four girls growing up over one summer. The outfits are superb, the music is amazing all 60's swing, jive & rock&roll and the cast are a great line up old and young.



The other being Pleasantville I can't get enough of that movie, it gives off that magic feeling like the movie Big Fish
