    I try to watch movies that show me who/what I am, where I came from to better understand myself for the future wherever I can find it. One requirement however, is that it cannot be a reflection of current events except that is of my own making.

    1. I realize a little psych profiling can show how old you are ;-) [EDIT] I mean how old I am!! :)

    2. I'm a sucker for romcom light hearted shows that gives me time to reflect.

    Enjoy!
