OK, my OH and I have some serious issues with the type of movie we like to watch.
I like to watch great movies and she likes to watch total, abject crap. I am being as fair as I can here
My favourite movies would include:-
Alien
Blade Runner
Someone to Watch Over Me
Pulp Fiction
Die Hard
Cat People (Nastassja version)
Highlander (I know, I know)
Casablanca
Memento
Wall Street
Betty Blue
The Changeling
El Orfanato
Pan's Labyrinth
- basically, beautifully photographed movies about good-looking people getting rich, getting naked, getting laid, or defeating drooling monsters from the future. Or they otherwise scare the living shit out of you. The perfect movie that unites all these features has yet to be made.
Here are some of her favourite movies.
Genevieve
The Railway Children
Le Ballon Rouge
Manon des Sources
Knocked Up
Bridget Jones
Sliding Doors
A Passage to India
Brief Encounter
It's a Wonderful Life
I said crap, and I wasn't far wrong. I can't say what these have in common.
Now here are a few we both liked:-
Malena (she was looking at Italy, I was looking at Monica)
Croupier
Lawrence of Arabia
The Third Man
Groundhog Day
Based on this, can anyone suggest any movies we could both sit through?
