My favourite movie
My favourite movie comes as quite a surprise to most people. I don’t know if it reflects on the movie not being that great, despite it being a classic, or if it’s not what people would expect me to watch. I think it’s great in any case.
It’s Top Gun! It’s got such a cracking soundtrack, memorable and cheesy scenes, cheekiness, and great balls of fire! I’ve watched this movie over ten times given our dvd at home had the options to watch it in french and spanish so I remember watching it both before exams and to cheer me up.
There’s a real energy in the film which I think makes it timeless. My favourite quotes include:
“Son, your ego is writing cheques your body can’t cash”
“I feel the need — the need for speed!”
“You! You are still dangerous. But you can be my wingman any time. Bullshit! You can be mine”
