Top 10 Favourites - Movie Thoughts (Epilogue) 🎬

Image
 Hello everyone, So to round what has been a very rewarding and gruelling writing project, I decided to go back over my list of 50 films and pick out my 10 favourites. I didn't have any sort of criteria other than an instinctive feeling or admiration. But I thought I would link them in this as a way of congratulating them for grabbing me through various emotions and leaving their own mark on my mind. You might not agree and that's OK, but these are just some of my favourite watches from the last 4 months or so.... Source: Pinterest THE IMITATION GAME MOONLIGHT BROOKLYN GONE GIRL SPIDERMAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE THE HALF OF IT EUROVISION SONG CONTEST: THE STORY OF FIRE SAGA EIGHTH GRADE BLACKKKLANSMAN COCO This has been really fun for me, and truly flexed my writing muscles. Thanks for reading, Love and looking forward to the smell of popcorn and a big screen in the near future, Emily ðŸŽ¬

Saving Mr Banks (2013) review - Movie Thoughts (Chapter 50) ☂

 Hello everyone, Today we come to the end of what has been a gigantically ambitious and very rewarding writing/film project. By this point, I am definitely feeling exhausted and a little burnt out so I decided that 50 was a nice and neat place to park this train. It's sort of fitting that the final film was one of the first ones that went on the list for this project in the first place. Back in 2013, I was very excited about this film coming out; it's classic Disney material, Emma Thompson, Tom Hanks - what's not to love? But oddly that excitement fizzled out for some reason and I ended up missing it. 7 years later, it's finally time for me to dive into this and fulfil that initial excitement.... (**disclaimer: the following thoughts are 100% my opinion, you do not have to agree with them - film is inherently subjective and everyone's perspective is valid! Also, there are probably spoilers in the following, read at your own risk. Now onto some thoughts....**) Source...
