Your Last Picture Show

[ThoughtCriminal]

If you could choose the last movie to watch before you die, wha would you watch again?

1. "Local Hero." Because everybody wins. :-)

And because the final musical cue by Mark Knopfler is called "Going Home". :-)

2. probably Victor, Victoria, my most favorite movie

although there are others I would want to watch in the penultimate days

3. I asked my wife

Her pick was the Disney "America the Beautiful" Circle-Vision film.

I thought that was a good choice, but then I realized that they showed a similar film at the euthanasia facility in "Soylent Green". I suppose "Soylent Green" would be about the worst selection I can think of.

4. Whatever movie wins the Best Picture Oscar in 2073 (it's OK; I'll wait)

I think my choice would depend on why I was dying - if it was peacefully of natural causes, I'd want something hopeful and upliftng. If I was being unjustly executed, I'd want a fuck-you-you're-all-going-to-hell movie...

5. Either Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, or It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World

I want to go out laughing.

6. What Dreams May Come

7. If I knew I was going to die, why would I watch a movie?

8. I guarantee you that you will die someday

Watching a movie doesn't have to be the last thing you do, but unless you never watch a movie again, there will be a last one that you see. What would you like that to be?

10. I wouldn't want to know it was the last one!!

I would never be able to enjoy it if I knew.

9. Monty Python and the Holy Grail or Animal House...

I want to go out smiling:)

11. Mulholland Drive or Inland Empire.

12. The Shawshank Redemption...

Because it's about hope!
