Miss Congeniality lol. I was in pageants when this came out as a way to improve my ungodly social skills. It usually ended up looking like this lol. The state I competed in was New Jersey too and lots of people said I was the inspiration for this movie

The Matrix. Some aspects of it are a bit silly, and the sequels were awful, but there's something about The Matrix that just appeals to me. I'm not sure whether I can explain it. I think maybe it's because the movie is like a philosophical thought experiment made into a big stupid action movie. It's intellectual and braindead at the same time, and it's difficult to categorise.

I still think that this is the greatest action scene in movie history:

Trainspotting. I grew up on it, and I still remember that feeling that the narrative was entirely ME, minus the story.

"Bringing Up Baby"
I am most definitely Susan Vance, and my husband is David Huxley.
One of the best screwball comedies EVER!

"E.T." felt like it was made especially for me. It had my favorite director, composer, screenwriter, creature FX master and subject matter, and my childhood was a lot like Elliott's.
