The Red Balloon

This is the first movie I ever saw (besides chicken little which I didn’t even see I ran from the theater screaming when I heard about the sky). The year was 2005; my mom sat me and my friend down on the floor in front of the tv and forced us to watch it. She said “it’s a mostly silent film” and groans were definitely heard. 3 minutes in, my friend was bored and groaning and having an awful time while I was locked in, mesmerized. This is the movie that probably changed everything for me, film wise. The first movie I was conscious during; couldn’t have picked a better one!
