If they're not too many, 10,11,12 and 15 from the movie asks please :)
Thank you very much for your questions and apologies for the delayed reply!!! <3 I never intended not to answer, it’s just the life that happens.  10: A movie you should love in theory but don't. I used to regard Lawrence of Arabia (1962) as one of the best films ever done. Like many of David Lean’s films, it deals with desires that don't come true. This type of melancholy appeals to me. But after the second watch of Lawrence I found it very boring. The story progressed far too slowly that I lost my interest in it. Sometimes, these kinds of multi-hour, majestic epoch movies have this effect. It’s a shame, because Peter O’Toole and Omar Sharif are a fascinating pair. I still think, however, that the cinematography is one of the finest ones in film history. Especially the extreme long shots together with Maurice Jarre’s oriental music are breathtaking. I also love the roughness of the desert, the dust, the dirt, how people sweat under the burning sun, and the fundemental questions in order to survive. Hmm, maybe I should just rewatch the movie. :) 11: A movie you should hate in theory but adore. This is a juicy question, like a forbidden pleasure. :) I’ve always regarded romantic comedies as the movies that are not worth spending time on, but I really enjoy Love Actually (2003) and Bridget Jones's Diary (2001). I wonder if it’s because Colin Firth and Hugh Grant are both playing in them. XD 12: Three most romantic movie scenes. This was one of the most difficult questions to be honest. I think it is much harder to create a romantic atmosphere than making it touching or hot. In addition, it was easier to choose examples from TV shows instead of movies. Finally, after a long consideration and browsing the bookshelf, here are my romantic choices in both movies and TV series (sorry, had to take both):
Tumblr media
- Pride and Prejudice (1995): Darcy proposes to Elizabeth for the second (and last) time.
Tumblr media
- Queer as Folk UK (1999-2000): Stuart wants to find out if he fancies Vince by asking him to dance at the wedding.
Tumblr media
- Looking the Movie (2016): Patrick asks Richie if he wants to try to share their lives together. *Big sigh* 15: A movie that unexpectedly freaked you out? Well, all I can think about now is The Excorcist (1973). I had seen several Argento movies, which made me think that “older” movies can’t be that scary. As a result to this, I ended up spending two painful hours, tears in my eyes, watching how the poor girl’s desperate situation did not seem to end. The movie taught me that I should never underestimate horror movies. Thanks again, I really enjoyed doing this! :) The Movie Asks
