First Movie You Loved

Tools    





So many good movies, so little time.
Most people may not remember but I know the first movie I really loved was

The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)

Ummm, Star Wars (1977), of course, when I was but a lad of seven and saw it in the theater - ultimately I saw it almost thirty times theatrically between '77 and '80. I had liked other movies before, but this was definitely the first one I loved.

The first film I loved as a child was Little Shop of Horrors (the musical).

The first film I loved as a "grown-up" (as if such a thing exists) was Dances with Wolves.

It would have to be Santa Claus (1985). I saw this at the ripe old age of 4 and I have to say they don't make christmas and Santa Claus' movies like that anymore.

I am having a nervous breakdance
We didn't have a VCR in my house until very late so there isn't really a film from my childhood that I used to watch over and over. That came later. But of course I remember seeing films on TV that I was blown away by. A few of my earliest memories are Da no tien gu / The Monkey King (1965), Captain Blood (1935), Ivanhoe (1982), La Grande vadrouille / Don't Look Now - We're Being Shot at (1966) and The Dirty Dozen (1967).

I think the first film I kind of got obsessed with and wanted to see again and again was The Doors (1991 - Oliver Stone). It didn't make me a Doors fan as much as it made me a The Doors fan. I bought the soundtrack CD but I still don't own an original Doors album or CD. I just fell in love with the film and the whole feel of it. It was more like the music was depicting the feel of the film than the other way around. The music suited the feeling of mystique that surrounds the whole film. That's how I felt but of course it's the incredible craftmanship of Stone that actually puts visuals to the music, not the other way around. Now I haven't seen it in a while but it once was my favourite film, and probably the first film I ever called my favourite film.

They had temporarily escaped the factories, the warehouses, the slaughterhouses, the car washes - they'd be back in captivity the next day but
now they were out - they were wild with freedom. They weren't thinking about the slavery of poverty. Or the slavery of welfare and food stamps. The rest of us would be all right until the poor learned how to make atom bombs in their basements.
