BRAVEHEART
Probably my favorite movie, but I enjoy so many different types of movies it really is difficult to list them in order of preference. Mel Gibson and Catherine McCormack, a winning combination. This movie was released in 1995. I can't believe it's been over 10 years! It should capture audiences with at least one of its story ingredients (romance, action, adventure, epic, battles, based on the life of William Wallace for history buffs), and will succeed in several at once. In particular, the love theme encompassing the two stars, whose characters are William Wallace and his wife, Murron, is quite memorable and poignant. A good movie score adds so much to our enjoyment, and this one delivers. It is rated "R" for "brutal medieval warfare," and yes, there are some pretty vivid injuries in the battle scenes. If you have not seen this movie...why not? If you have, please share your thoughts.

Dear Intelliflix.com, I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that I have really enjoyed my intelliflix.com membership. I have tried some of the other online movie rental websites and they do not compare. Not to mention intelliflix.com is the best deal. I really like the "sent movie back" option. That way I am receiving my next movie around the same time you are receiving the movie I sent back. To put it straight. INTELLIFLIX.COM ROCKS!!!!!!! Thanks Intelliflix!!

CLERKS
I consider this type of comedy "dark" and these movies definitely tickle my funny bone. When I saw Clerks, released in 2000, I was charmed by its low budget black-and-white. The dialog is wonderfully clever. Viewers can follow Clerks II quite well without having seen the first movie, but I honestly think half the enjoyment is missed if not seen in order. Clerks II revisits the same main characters, showing us what's happened since we've been gone. Trivia question -- In Clerks, how many times throughout the course of the movie did Dante say, "I'm not even supposed to BE here today!" Memorable quotes: "Cute cat. What's it's name?" "Annoying customer." "I hope it feels so good to be right. There's nothing more exhilarating than pointing out the shortcomings of others, is there."
THE BIG CHILL
Very high on my list. All star cast: Kevin Kline, Glenn Close, Jeff Goldbloom, William Hurt, Tom Berenger, JoBeth Williams, Mary Kay Place, Meg Tilly. Kevin Costner is uncredited for his role...sssh, those in the know...those who don't, try to find him in the movie. Great music selections. Witty, intelligent, the dialogs are marvelous, and the comments quotable:
"I don't know anyone who could get through the day without two or three juicy rationalizations. They're more important than sex."
"Ah, come on. Nothing's more important than sex."
"Oh yeah? Ever gone a week without a rationalization?"
"It doesn't always happen the first time."
"That's not what they told us in high school."
"Amazing tradition. They throw a great party for you on the one day they know you can't come."
"He went out with a bang, not a whimper."
JEAN DE FLORETTE / MANON OF THE SPRING
These movie gems were released in 1987. They're in French so get ready for subtitles but they're worth it. Gérard Depardieu stars in Jean De Florette. The second film, Manon of the Spring, is about his daughter's revenge. Manon is played by Emmanuelle Béart (who also played the angel in Date with an Angel - remember her beauty, movie merit in that instance debatable). These movies are breathtakingly beautiful. Nice little twists and turns which are more apparent in the second movie, but don't cheat. Watch them both to feel the enormity of the conclusion.
