Thirteen Movies

1. Lost In Translation - Two people, lost and alone in a foreign country find a friendship that transforms them both forever. It is not about sex, it is about understanding. 

2. Volver

3. Breakfast At Tiffany's - It is the final scene that gets me every time.  He comes and tries to stop her from escaping to Brazil.  She loses her unnamed cat.  You can feel how much he loves her, despite all her flaws, and I cry like a baby when he gets out of the cab and helps her find her and her unnamed cat.

4. Sleepless In Seattle - I turn on this flick every time I am stuck at home sick.  The scenes in which they see each other from a distance, and the final scene that they finally meet up ... *sob*.

5. Little Mermaid

6. Gigi

7. City Of God - Single-handedly inspired a solo trip to Brazil.

8. Long Days Journey Into Night

9. Philadelphia Story: Katherine Hepburn... the type of woman I hope to grow up and be someday.

10. Mulholland Drive

11. Giant

12. Splendor In The Grass

13. The Departed
