Movie Challenge
from Sharon Compton

 

 

1. Last movie you watched.
The Second Time Around.  Watched it on TV.

2. Last movie you watched in a theater.

Saw it in December 2019.  I have not seen a movie in a theater in 2020.

3. Film you've always wanted to watch, but haven't.
Apocalypse Now

4. Favorite movie soundtrack.
Anything by John Williams.

5. Your favorite movie duo.
Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn

6. Movie you like because of its story.
The Quiet Man

7. A film that disappointed you
Marjorie Morningstar was a big disappointment.  It was one of my favorite books in my 20s and the cast seemed perfect, but when the movie came out, they changed the story so much that it was not the book story that I loved so much.  I couldn't bear to watch the movie more than once.

8. Favorite scene from a movie.
I only have to see the last 10 minutes of Affair to Remember to be a sobbing mess.

9. Your guilty pleasure movie.
Legally Blonde

10. A movie you keep going back to.
A Star Is Born, 1954 (Judy Garland)

11. A quote you admire from your favorite movie.
"He gave me a look at myself I've never had before. He saw something in me nobody else ever did. He made me see it too. He made me believe it."

12. A movie based on a true story.
All the President's Men

13. Your favorite actor/actress.
Judy Garland

14. A sequel you're not a fan of.
I enjoyed Star Wars and didn't like Empire Strikes Back and haven't really seen the rest (I've slept through a few, though)

15. A film you know by heart.
The Wizard of Oz

16. Your favorite opening scene.
2001: a Space Odyssey

17. A film that was based on a book and was executed well.
Gone with the Wind

18. A comedy film.
A Private Function, with Maggie Smith, is one of the funniest movies I've seen...and few people have ever heard of it.

 

19. TV series you're binging on now.
Just finished Downton Abbey again and now working through a rerun of Call the Midwife

20. A TV series you think is underrated.
Outlander!
