I watched 56 movies and 35 episodes of TV shows. That’s more movies than I’ve probably seen in the last five years or so.

My favorites in order of viewing: Planet Earth, The Secret of Roan Inish, Singin’ In The Rain, The Road Home, A Walk in the Clouds, Chicken Run, Waking Ned Devine, Stranger Than Fiction, The Illusionist, Princess Tutu, Antonia’s Line, Children of Heaven.

But there were lots of other great films. I liked almost everything I saw, which is rare for me. You guys rock.

These movies remain in my queue for later (along with the other movies I already had there):

Baran
Gosford Park
Lantana
Il Postino
Fried Green Tomatoes
Steel Magnolias
10 Things I Hate About You
Girls Just Want To Have Fun
Mad Hot Ballroom
Notting Hill
Meet the Robinsons
Wives & Daughters
Little House
Top Hat
A Room With a View
Hero

One last request. When people made suggestions, I skimmed through the summaries and added the ones I thought looked best. If you recommended something and it’s not listed, but you really really really think I’d like it, let me know and I’ll make an effort to see it.

Thanks, everyone. I’m feeling much better, and I really appreciate your help with movie selection!
