I’m a thirtysomething (at least for a little while longer) who loves books. I was born in Ohio, graduated from Ohio State, and then spent time in LA, Arlington, Virgina, NYC and Lansing, Michigan before ending up back in Ohio 9 years ago. I have a wonderful husband who never complains when I bring another book home and two furry kids-Scout the cat and Max the dog.

Pingback by Fave Film #10 – When Harry Met Sally « Stacy’s Bookblog | July 3, 2009 |
W€hat a great list! I’ve seen many of these but I’m sorry to say that I haven’t seen several of the older classics. I’ve always wanted to borrow some from the library but it never seems to happen. A current favorite that I never get tired of is Steel Magnolias. I just love those southern women and how they can insult each other and still make it sound polite. There are so many wonderful lines in that movie. And anything that makes me laugh is always a good thing!
A lot of your faves are my faves too! What a great idea…I think I may have to do the same thing on my blog!!! Hope you don’t mind!

We have the same tastes in movies – I’d put a lot of your list on my top 100 movies as well!
