Peter Bogdanovich

One of the best movies of all time is by far PAPER MOON directed by the incredible Peter Bogdanovich...

It's unbelievable that Tatum O'Neal-the main character- was only TEN years old when she starred in that.. youngest to win an oscar.

And a special thanks to PAUL THOMAS ANDERSON

Here is a special thanks to Paul Thomas Anderson: Probably the most incredible living director.
Thank you for inventing DIRK DIGGLER. You have truly saved us all...

For those who have not seen this movie: Boogie Nights... GO SEE IT NOW! you must drop everything, doctors appointments, meetings, dinners, barmitzfahs, batmitzfahs, just everything and see this movie now..

Jets vs. Sharks

Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise: Their film Westside Story is REMARKABLE!

For those who don't know: Westside Story is about two teenagers that fall in love from rival gangs, one being in the Jets and the other in the Sharks.

80's Coming Of Age

For those who have not seen the two best John Hughes coming of age movies: The Breakfast Club and Sixteen Candles, run out to the nearest blockbuster and buy them BOTH!
Despite the fact these films were made in the 80's, the duality between the events in these movies and modern day teenage society is very similar.

Molly Ringwald in Sixteen Candles is your typical teenage girl who is struggling with boys, family and lets be honest here, her hormones.
The Breakfast Club is about 5 teenagers that bring something different to the table: a jock, a metalhead, a weirdo, a princess and a nerd. Each person represented your stereotypical cliques that would constantly bump heads but in the end has a beautiful outcome.
