Top Five Friday






Happy Friday! Today I'm going to start a new blog tradition, "Top Five Fridays." Inspired by my number five favorite movie, High Fidelity. The guys in High Fidelity remind me of my neighbors and great friends from college who were in a band and were total music snobs. They spent hours discussing bands, music genres, and all that geeky musician stuff. They're still in the band actually, check them out here. My number one is Breakfast at Tiffany's and I don't really think I need to explain why this film is so very spectacular. Number two is one of my favorite Jane Austen stories. That part in Pride and Prejudice when Mr. Darcy is walking towards Elizabeth with the sunrise behind him, well it just makes me weak in the knees. Number three, The Royal Tenenbaums, inspired my Halloween costume a few years ago (I loved being Margo Tenenbaum). And number four, Garden State, I've watched so many times, I've just lost count. It's quirky, romantic and funny, just my type. What are your top five movies this Friday?

Awesome picks. It's hard to narrow it down to just five. I think Roman Holiday, Ocean's Eleven and Hoosiers have to be somewhere up there.

Oooo...Roman Holiday was definitely on my mind when I was trying to decide. Can you believe I haven't seen Hoosiers yet? Gotta put it on the Netflix queue!
