Old Favorites

mousepod · 04-05-2005, 08:22 PM

When I was 4 years old, I saw Yellow Submarine and I really loved "Nowhere Man". My parents went out and bought the original soundtrack for me, but the song wasn't on the record, so I made them exchange it for 'Yesterday and Today'. So my Beatles thing started really early.

We didn't have a VCR until I was in high school. My cousin gave me a videotape with A Clockwork Orange, The Man Who Fell to Earth and *ahem* Deep Throat. But I was already old by then.

For my true "old faves", I'd have to go with The Jungle Book, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Sound of Music, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the book)...

* Absolute Beginners,
* Gay Purree,
* this movie where a mouse and his dad wander the world..all I remember is that at one point they see themselves in a repeating picture.
oh.. yeah.. I watched the Crow over and over for a while too.. Name reminded me. I can recite Legends of the Fall too.

I loved Valley Girls. I rented it many, many times. Now, when I see a picture of Nicolas Cage in a magazine, I wonder...my gawd, what happened?

This is Spinal Tap is one of my all time favorites. Before my husband and I were married, we probably watched it together 30 times. We never got tired of it.

I got turned on to The Beatles when I was about 3. Dad would play the 8-track of Abbey Road all the time in the car. When I was about 11, my parents took me to "Beatlemania" on Broadway. Within 6 months, I had all of their albums and wore them all out rather quickly.

Concerning films, I always loved all of the Pink Panther movies. Hmm, what else? Smokey and the Bandit, Young Frankenstein, Jaws, Airplane, and Willie Wonka were all huge favorites and still are. (All of which I saw in the theater)
