“Gandhi said that whatever you do in life will be insignificant, but it’s very important that you do it because nobody else will. Like when someone comes into your life and half of you says: ‘You’re nowhere near ready’. And the other half says: ‘Make her yours forever’.“

Remember Me (2010) dir. Allen Coulter

"Who am I? And how can a fox ever be happy without, you'll forgive the expression, a chicken in its teeth?"

"I don't know what you're talking about, but it sounds illegal."

Fantastic Mr. Fox, dir. Wes Anderson

7/10. From the directing to the color palette, the puppets to the choppy stop motion, the music to the unique voice acting techniques, this movie is as memorable as it is enjoyable. There were aspects of the stop motion that took me out of the story (which I hear may have been intentional of Wes), and the "canis lupus" scene, for better or worse, still has me scratching my head for meaning. All-in-all, this movie is a solid annual watch for a new autumn tradition.

"Lizzy, are you out of your senses? I thought you hated the man."

"No, Papa."

Pride and Prejudice (2005), dir. Joe Wright

8/10. While it could have followed the book's scene settings closer, I do believe that this version of Jane Austen's famous novel showed it could take the essence a book and make an interesting, beautiful movie from it. I love the directing, the cast for many of the main characters — most notably Lizzy herself, the costuming, the music... and the end scene was the cherry on top.

"Has it got any sports in it?"

"Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles!"

The Princess Bride, dir. Rob Reiner

9/10. The plot, the quotable lines, the costuming, the twists and turns, the creativity, the acting from the cast. All are very well thought out, turning this classic into one of the few movies I can watch again and again without ever growing bored.
