For me, personally, It would be Snatch. It's such a great movie that I could watch again and again. So many interesting characters and a unique style that sets it apart from so many other movies. There's just that extra something in that movie

What about you, fellow Lemmites? What is your favourite movie?

High Fidelity for me. Idk how many times I've watched it lol.

For me it's definitely Fight Club. No big spoilers below, see it if you haven't.

The theme of hitting bottom purposefully in order to rebuild yourself consciously into who you want to become has stuck with me.

I've been through some shit since then and have had to rebuild. It's nice to look on it as an opportunity rather than a punishment.

And i love it because there is so much to unpack and to interprete. I never heard or saw yout take on the story. It eaven changed what i got from the movie with me growing up.

My all time favorite movie is Castle in the Sky

I have a top 3 that's unordered and based entirely on watching experiences that just hit a special and rare spot:

  • 2001 A Space Odyssey
  • Stalker (by Tarkovsky)
  • Season 3 of Twin Peaks (TV, obviously, but that season is filmed like one 18 hr long lynch film and it felt entirely like a cinematic experience, and hit a special spot ... if you know you know we can maybe talk about it in spoiler sections here).

For a long time I was too afraid to watch Stalker. When I did, it‘s hard to describe, it was revelatory. Now I am too scared to watch the Mirror.
