Personal Best

seriously.. again and again. My all time favourites I guess. If one of these movies is on television while im zapping I will most likely if I have nothing else to do finish it. I have been watching and watched most movies regulary.. sometimes with a long break. But they keep coming back to my life. Those are the requirements to be on this list.
