[Crescent Fresh]

• Stranger Than Fiction
• 5 Centimeters Per Second

I probably could think of more, but those float to the top of the list

- 5 Centimeters Per Second (All-time favorites)
- Georgia
- The Hours (This movie has hit me for years!)
- All Miyazaki's films
- The Cove
- Hilary & Jackie
- Requiem for a Dream
- Dancer in the Dark

Just to name a few...

As you can see, I'm often attracted to sad movies. *sniff*

 

[Sarcasticus]

- Requiem for a Dream

That movie was a real head trip. Really freaked out my INFJ gf.

I know what you mean, but I like movies that are thought-provoking, in a good way of course.

First off, I was giggling aloud reading the posts about all the different "INFJ Organization Methods", I am exactly the same. I have hundreds of VHS movies and hundreds of DVDs, people come over and look on my shelf like "What....the.....f**k kind of order is this??". The best way I can explain it is:

FIRST SET: The most awesome shit ever in the world.
SECOND SET: Not so awesome as the first set but still distinctively awesome enough for its own section.
THIRD SET: Brainy Comedy.
FOURTH SET: Brainy Drama.
FIFTH SET: Comedy I don't deem as brainy as the first ones but still pretty high brow and impressive.
SIXTH SET: Drama that's kind of OTT but still respectable.
SEVENTH SET: Period/Costume (in order of era they take place in)
EIGHTH SET: Foreign films (in order of release date)
NINTH SET: Television, Music, Stand-Up Comedy, Documentaries.
TENTH SET: Really lowbrow shit I feel insecure about owning and therefore hide at the end of the row where only the observant will find them.
ELEVENTH SET: Respectable Horror, Cartoons, and Sci-Fi placed at the beginning of the new row to distract people from seeing the embarrassing shit at the end of the previous row.

Now that I'm looking at it, this might not be so much an INFJ thing as just a thing for batshit crazy control freaks....but I digress....

That movie was a real head trip. Really freaked out my INFJ gf.

To this day, I'm afraid to see it. I'm still working through the emotional trauma I experienced when I saw "The Thin Red Line" over ten years ago.

 

[Rationista]

Ok, I guess I'll just jump in. Currently, I've been into Louie. The show is brilliant, and I think Louis C.K. is the best stand-up comic out there today. I also love Daria, The Daily Show, Mad Men, The Walking Dead, Glee, and The Golden Girls. I'm an absolute t.v. junkie, but those are the shows I most frequently watch. There are too many movies to name, but I will say that True Grit was, by far, my favorite movie of 2010. The acting was just stellar, and the humor was right up my alley. It's been a long time since I was that delighted in a movie theater.

She saw that one too with her mom and sister (not knowing what it was) and had to leave after the first 5 minutes.

The Hours is one of my favorites, too. If you liked that, you might like A Single Man if you haven't seen it already. They're quite similar in that they trace the lives of people in one day. Julianne Moore's in both of them, as well. And of course, Colin Firth is amazing.
