Movie Tag, Huh?
Hey, I'll admit it: I'm a sucker for a good movie. And since Angry tagged me in on this, here goes:
As a child: Herbie Rides Again
I saw this in the old Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver, before they turned it into a hall for the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. As a kid I liked the idea of a car with a mind of its own. (And the fact that the car's make coincided with my own initials didn't hurt either.)
As a teenager: Raiders of the Lost Ark
I didn't get to see too many movies in my high school years, but this is a memorable one.
In university: Roxanne
This was actually my first "date" movie. Steve Martin as a modern-day Cyrano was pretty cool.
Recent years: The Kurosawa/Mifune Samurai Films
Seven Samurai. Throne of Blood. The Hidden Fortress. Yojimbo. Sanjuro. Masters of storytelling, all of them.
All-time favorite: Yojimbo / A Fistful of Dollars
The same story, really. I did a write-up about them here.
Now, who to tag in? Oh, I know:
The Raging Kraut
Canadianna
Babbling Brooks
Heh.
