Just three?!? Umm... Like Lilith, my selection changes frequently.

1) Dead Poets' Society (I love Robin Williams. I also love Ethan Hawke --- though for very different reasons! Plus I've just felt a resonance with this movie since the day I first saw it.)

2) Amélie (If the Cirque du Soleil decided to make a chick flick this would be the result... It's quirky, bright, sweet, and smart.)

3) Baraka (Okay, so there's no plot to this one. And no characters. It's still one of the most moving experiences I've ever had from just watching something. The movie consists of sequences filmed all around the world, kind of a day in the life of the earth, as it moves from dawn to dusk. It's breathtakingly beautiful.)

Mindboxer --- I LOOOOOVE the soundtrack to Crouching Tiger. I almost included it on my list --- it was a close call! Glad it made it onto the board in someone's list, though.

I cannot pick just three movies because my likes change so much.
I constantly think that everytime that I watch a movie that is new
and appeals to me that it is the best.There are some movies that I just will not watch because of who is in them.I won't mention
them here because they appeal to some of the pixies members!
A few things that I have noticed:I tend to like movies that you have to figure out the perpetrater and reason.I tend to like Buddy
and revenge flicks.I also tend to gravitate towards violence.By
buddy flicks;I mean ones where friends or people of like lifestyles
do things because thier cohorts were wronged.I like movies where I can relate to what the person is feeling;personaly! Irish
P.S.Exp:Harley Davidson and The Marlboro Man.
Different lifestyles but knowing that the other can be counted on.
Remembrance&loyalty to ones background.

1. the Crow--I love that movie so much that i have a tattoo of it across my back...it never gets old and i can recite the entire movie whilst i am watching it. It is a love story first, then a story of retrobution and justice.

2. Gone with the Wind--One of the best classic movies.

3. The Goonies--When i was kid, my friends and I would try to come up with our own Goonies-type of adventures. Watching it with my kids brings back my childhood
