Not sure what that proves, except I don't seem drawn to the most popular movies.
What years did you check? Did you learn anything about yourself?
Excellent! In your 1956 list I saw everything except The Searchers and The Forbidden Planet. In your 1985 list I saw Goonies, Back to the Future, The Breakfast Club and Rocky IV. In your 2014 list I say just two: Interstellar and Guardians of the Galaxy.
ReplyDeleteI check out my year of birth 1957 and the top ten were:
12 Angry Men
The Seventh Seal
Paths of Glory
The Bridge Over the River Kwai
Gunfight at the OK Corral
Funny Face
An Affair to Remember
Witness for the Prosecution
Wild Strawberries
Old Yeller
I saw all except Paths of Glory, Gunfight at the OK Corral, and Witness for the Prosecution.
Looking at your list, I've seen six out of the 10 -- better than my own birth year. :-)
DeleteI haven't seen 12 Angry Men, Paths of Glory, Witness for the Prosecution, or Wild Strawberries. I looked them up and they all sound good!
That's ok (about seeing one movie last year). Guardians of the Galaxy was the best that came out. :) I only saw 2 from 2104: Guardians and Interstellar. And 2 from 1985, and 1 from 1956?! I don't watch movies that often… :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting! Looking at my lists it seems like I don't watch very many movies either, but then I realize I watch a lot of movies, just not many from the top 10.
