mr. rikrak & i love many of the same movies.
our usual film fare is filled with inspiring documentaries (love those docs!), fabulous foreign films & the fantastic indie movies we both can't get enough of... but left to my own devices, i have some guilty-pleasure film genres i just love (shhh.. don't tell!)... my top 2 loves are:


heist movies!
i LOVE heists. from all eras. i just adore the great suspenseful, intricate plot twists, the revealing of a great caper & all that heisty, thieving fun!! the sting (robert redford AND paul newman: *swoon!*) , the usual suspects, ocean's 11.... that kinda craziness! love it!

...............................



& (shhhhh!)
romantic comedies.

i know. it's bad. but i love them. old ones i joyfully watch again and again. so many hilarious ones that i love from the 80s. ah, the blissful world of romantic comedies: where true love is able to conquer the most formidable of obstacles! annie hall, the princess bride, love actually, when harry met sally, to name a few faves!. ahhhh... i'm smitten!

.............................

okay! so i've confessed!
so there are my 2 not-so-secret guilty pleasure film genres.
now... let's snuggle into our cozy sleeping bags, open another bag of sour cream & onion chips,
turn on some cyndi lauper, giggle & whisper and hear yours!
