Day 10- Favorite movie

Really? Favorite movie? I can't choose ONE movie. For example, I absolutely adore "The sound of music", it has been with me always, it was aired on tv like every single holiday when I was a kid, it was the first movie I bought on dvd with my money, I know the songs by heart, sometimes I found myself thinking in that refreshing first scene in the green mountains, with that marvelous musical intro and Julie Andrews singing "the hills are alive with the sound of music....". The Von Trapp kids are like my brothers, only they always are going to be the same age (I still remember when I thought Liezl was old). I think every single character is well developed and memorable. But I couldn't say that "The sound of music" is my favorite movie, it's just one of the many movies I deeply enjoy and I'll cherish in my heart forever.

    ¿No te gusta Casablanca? A mi me encanta. Y de la lista que has puesto, pocas no he visto. Que el cielo la juzgue me encanta, Tierney hace papel de mala malísima, casi tanto como Davis en La Loba.
    Que tengas un buen fin de semana.

    Tom: Yeah #|9 is great, I remember I saw it with my dad like 3 years ago, in Christmas Eve. We were feeling down I don't remember why, but it cheered us up and the next day was brighter :) Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

    Lola: Para serte franca, cuando vi Casablanca por primera vez no me gustó mucho (herejía!), pero con el tiempo me he ido encariñando con ella. Por eso no la incluí, y puse "To have and have not", que se le parece, pero que me gustó desde el primer instante :) Y la Tierney es maestra en "Que el cielo la juzgue", esa imagen de ella con lentes oscuros en el bote, viéndose tan cool, pero siendo tan malvada se me quedó grabada :) Un buen finde para ti tb, muchísimas gracias por comentar.

    Wow, what an amazing list! A Star is Born is my number one(the 1937 version). What´s the version that you´ve listed?
    I unfortunately haven´t watched A letter to three wives. Actually, I haven´t watched 26 of them (shame on me!):P
    Greetings,
