Show me your... movies!

That's a list of my most favorite feature movies. Maybe a list of independent- and shortfilms will follow. But a list of the worst movies I ever had the honor to see will follow for sure! 
That's gonna be fun...
Of course the list is incomplete. At least I tried to order them from the best to the least best, but I gave up on this soon. Nevertheless the first ones at the top of the list can be considered as my all time favorites (till now, at least).
The movies titles are the original ones. If these aren't in english, the proper english title can be found in the brackets, followed by the year of the original release and the name of the director.

So here I am again

It's summer and everything is fine again. Maybe a bit to fine.
I'm feeling so happy and glad at the moment that I don't have much time or lust to get creative. Isn't full contentedness a kind of state where creativity gets lost? Maybe it's because you have everything you need, or at least think you have. And that means you are in no adversity and have no problems. At least it feels so! Of course it isn't that way.
But don't you need to be in some kind of adversity or have to have problems which really encroach into the deepest depths of yourself, to be able of being creative? It's the same with money. If you havn't much you get creative. That means you find ways to get something you want!
So many great artists were pure wrecks. If speaking of their psychical state. But they fought and lived the life they wanted to live. That deserves respect!
Well I got a bit thoughtfull and sentimental. Hope I did not bored you with my words.
I wish everyone a wonderful summer and much much much CREATIVITY!

Dear watchers and friends!
--------------------------
I've a problem. My laptop finally left this world. This asshole hopefully died a painful death! After having to replace his broken harddrive once, a broken malfunctioning battery, a demaged display,... he is now not among us anymore...
So it will take SOME time to rescue the data, if this is still possible, and get some money for a new Laptop somehow... Damn!
I won't be able to upload anything in the near future. That does not mean I'm not doing anything. I will paint and draw like before. But maybe I've to find a job for money making, so time will be even more precious.
But I will regularly check messages for your new stuff. So don't hesitate to write something. Probably you just have to wait some time longer for an answer. I'm sorry.
Maybe I'm gonna share my experiences about the time without the PC
Hope I will get along somehow...
So what to do?
...
Yeah I know! I'm gonna read more books than before, listen to the radio, read the newspaper, use my free tickets for the theater... and visit the Internetcafé. (There I get FREE COFFEE if I visit often! What a compensation!)
