The Philadelphia Story

Description

This is such a perfect film. The writing is sharp, the characters are perfectly, gloriously, believable, and Cary Grant is delicious.

The Graduate

Description

Well, you can't beat the soundtrack - and the rest...it's just sheer movie making genius. This is a film I have to watch at least once a year - it's like therapy (and great fashion inspiration!) The Graduate is another timeless classic - it's American satire, 20's angst, and a twisted love story wrapped into a perfectly executed film, with themes as true today as they were back then.

Sabrina

3 people recommended this item

Description

I had forgotten how much I loved this movie until I read a post in A Taste for Good Life she summed up Sabrina as "Like Sabrina, when we strive to be the best of ourselves, instead of reaching for the moon, we are letting the moon reach for us." Sigh.
And can it get any better than Bogart and Audrey Hepburn? (via A Taste for Good Life)

Description

I'm sure many people would argue this is not a classic. But it is! It is! Some of Meg Ryan's best work, and the story is a wonderful parable. (via esh)
