Friday Fives!

Beth over at Just Me and My Life is hosting her Friday Fives!  The topic for this week is Top 5 Favorite Movies!  I'll admit, I had to do some thinking about this one!  

Back in the early 90s, my favorite movie was Sister Act and Whoopi Goldberg was my favorite actress.  I wrote her a letter professing my love for her movie about dancing and singing nuns, and she one of her agents wrote back and sent me an autographed picture.  I had that pictures framed in my room for years.  Now, I've moved on from Sister Act...not sure how far I've moved, but it isn't in my top 5 movies anymore!

My top 5 are:

Sixteen Candles

It's such a classic 80s movie! Love the story of Samantha and Jake, and Long-Duck Dong.  My cousin and I quote this movie often ("Sofa City, Sweetheart!" or "My new style American girlfriend.")

The Breakfast Club

Another classic 80s movie!  One of the first posters I ever bought was one that had the quote about each one of us being a "brain, athlete, basketcase, princess, and criminal."

Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club

 

Twenty-Seven Dresses

I really like this story and what's not to love about romantic comedies?!

Forrest Gump

I laughed, I cried, and I actually stayed awake for the whole thing (it's a long, long movie!).  I love Tom Hanks in this role!

The Blind Side

Love the story of one of my Ravens, Michael Oher!  Sandra Bullock rocked as Mrs. Tuohy and I loved the kid who played L.J.  He was hilarious! Great movie!

Now that I've been thinking, there are plenty of other movies that I could go on about!  Too bad it isn't Friday Fifteen!
