desert island movies

Movies I could happily watch up the end of days. I tried not to worry too much about this, about whether these were "great" films or whatever. These are movies I love, movies I could leave on repeat on the DVD player and enjoy multiple times in a row. Crime movies, movies steeped in a certain period of time, or a certain emotional resonance.

The Big Sleep - I love Bogart and Bacall snapping at each other

Only Lovers Left Alive - I love everything from the people to feeling it soothes in my soul

A Perfect Murder - perfect rich NYC scenery, Michael Douglas being evil

Love, Actually - all the feelings

My Neighbor Totoro - strangely joyful and magic

Heat - utterly beautiful, perfect crime drama

Heathers - the perfect dark 80s comedy
