As a
child, our family was one of the first I knew to purchase a video player; it
was a family Xmas present. My dad would painstakingly tape movies for us from
the television pausing the recording through the ads so that we could watch a
film straight through. The movie that got the most screen time in our house
was ‘Bugsy Malone’. My sisters and I were enamored with the depiction of
prohibition and the speakeasies; the death-by-cream-pie and the old cars; and I
was probably more than a little besotted by Scott Baio.
More
recently though, I can usually put on a DVD of ‘Whale Rider’ or ‘Juno’, ‘Benny
& Joon’ or ‘The Shawshank Redemption’ and still be entertained and moved.

Sadly Clueless is one that I have watched a hundred times. Others I love are The Princess bride and the very funny movie Blind Date. These movies may be old but have happy memories associated with them and leave me with a warm fuzzy feeling at the end which is what I want from my movie chill out time.
