Three Films. How can one make another one choose only 3 films? But alas The challenge has been accepted and I will do my best. Now I'm not going to sit here and type about my 3 favorite movies, because honestly I'll end up regretting choosing one over another and be mad at my whole challenge and the point is for a little self discovery not anger. So the movies I pick will be somewhat random.

Film 1: Aladdin

My favorite disney movie. Something about the story of a poor street rat unsure of who he is and what he wants to be, just struggling to get along really touches my heart. Actually, I do have to say that what gets me in Disney movies isnt the romantic parts, sure they are sweet but I'm a realist, even as a child I never thought that was how love would be. What gets me is the lesson each character has to find within themselves, a feat quite impressive for these barely legal characters, if legal at all lol. Disney movies are beloved because of the inspiration and motivation hidden behind their magical animations.

Film 2: Amelie

This was the last movie I saw for the first time. It was sweet, and sincere and very cute. It is a french film though so get your reading eyes ready :) Definitely worth a watch. It was adorably uplifting <3

Film 3: Inception

The movie next to me right now. I actually did not have the pleasure to see this in theaters, but I was convinced by a few close friends (Tyler and Shelby) to finally watch it so I did. Then I watched it again with my mother and again again with my mother. Needles to say I really really enjoyed this film and glad I didnt let all the hype of the movie stop me from seeing it. It taught me a good lesson, sometimes you cant be so hipster or you'll miss out on great things. Also being hipster is so mainstream now. ugh. :P

You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn’t true. I know a lot about love. I’ve seen it, centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate… It made me want to turn away and never look down again. But when I see the way that mankind loves… You could search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know that it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and… What I’m trying to say, Tristan is… I think I love you. Is this love, Tristan? I never imagined I’d know it for myself. My heart… It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it’s trying to escape because it doesn’t belong to me any more. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I’d wish for nothing in exchange - no gifts. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine.
