Annie

it's weird to put into words how much this film actually means to me. i used to watch it obsessively when i was younger (including the director's commentary - which, now i think back on it, really sparked my interest for film). the music is great and the numbers are well-choreographed - the characters are compelling (helped by quvenzhané wallis and cameron diaz's performances in particular). there are so many memorable lines ("people come to the bathroom but stay for the bedroom" being my personal favourite) and some fun meta moments - LOVE LOVE LOVE
