E.T.

I am absolutely charmed by the characters, the story, the optimism, and the connection to the unknown.

Literally can't choose ONE. Have to be Babel, Y tú mamá tambien, Roma, and Cars (yes pixar). Even putting those out there, I feel mad not including the petrified forest, taxi driver, or Wall-E

I was about to start Roma last night but didn’t. I should watch that tonight.

No one ever mentions this movie but my favorite movie is The Fountain, with Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz.

It's basically a love story set in three timelines, with absolutely amazing music, dark storytelling, and an unbelievably satisfying ending. A lot of it is left up to interpretation but it's not overly complicated. Cemented me as a huge fan of Aronofsky even if he's not always a pop culture favorite.

My absolute favorite that I rewatch constantly is Supertroopers. If I only had 1 movie to be able to rewatch forever, it would be that one
