Movie Addict: 1001(ish) Movies to See Before You Die

There are so many of these lists now, of things to see, listen to, watch, places to visit, experiences to have, all before you kick the proverbial bucket. As someone who has always been addicted to screen (small, large, colour, black and white, at home, at the cinema) the movie list is one that intrigues me greatly. I'd love to do the places to see list but sadly my budget restricts me from such an adventure.

As a lover of film there are quite a few films on the list that I really am ashamed to say I haven't seen (e.g. Casablanca) and I have decided to change this. It's going to take me a while, but I am going to watch all of the films on this list! I won't be re watching the ones I've already seen I don't think, as the list of haven't seens is so long! Some of the movies I have marked as seen I watched a long time ago, and while I remember I've seen them I can't necessarily remember the whole movie so I may watch some of them again... especially the ones from the 50s and 60s and any that star Marilyn or Audrey! I will try and blog about each movie as soon as I've finished watching.

Here is the list (organised chronologically) for those of you who'd like to play along at home (the list has more than 1001 movies as it has been updated each year to include recent flicks)

Week One... Or Should I Say Week Two Thousand One Hundred and Seventy Nine...

 That's how many weeks I have been alive (give or take a couple of days). Two thousand one hundred and seventy-nine. Yet here I am still fighting the same fights I have always fought. Self-image, self-acceptance, unrelenting standards, imposter syndrome.  Once again I find myself in a body that feels uncomfortable and unhealthy. It crept up on me slowly and suddenly all at the same time. I still barely eat any refined sugar. I turn down the lollies and cakes and doughnuts at work. It's not even a struggle, I no longer enjoy the way sugar makes my body feel. But my old nemesis, potato chips, remains undefeated. I eat potato chips to fill the emptiness in my soul. To feel as miserable physically as I do mentally or emotionally. To get comfort from an association with my childhood. It is the struggle I can't overcome. The war I can't win. So after months of trying on my own to no avail, months of the scales not budging, I have signed up for a healthy eating plan. I'm n

Unsent Letter: Dear Broken Little Girl

Dear Broken Little Girl You've got the world fooled. With your masks and your costumes. With the illusion you have created. I'm not fooled anymore, I see who you truly are. I see the little girl terrified of revealing any weakness or cracks. The little girl who uses people for what they can do for her and then casts them aside until she needs them once more. I used to look at you and think you were so much more than me, that I was so much less. Now I realise that you will never be as much as me. Not until you are willing to be wrong, to be imperfect, to be fragile and vulnerable and human. Anybody can do what you do, yet you doubt my ability. You think you are so grown up and in control, but you're not. Everything you stand against, you have been. Everything you fight for, you've never endured. You are an empty shadow trying to fill yourself up at the expense of others. You once told me that I should learn to put myself first and say no. Well I've learnt. I

World Domination and the Darkness

"Gee Brain, what do you want to do tonight?" "The same thing we do every night Pinky -  try to take over the world!" Two things are clear to me , I love that cartoon and Brain never suffered from depression. You see it's much easier to try to take over the world if you don't have to use every ounce of motivation and determination in your body to get out of bed each morning. If Brain had suffered from depression it is likely he may have given up his plan after the first failure. For even the smallest hurdle can, to a depressive, seem like an insurmountable barrier. Now don't get me wrong, there are lots of depressed people who have achieved all sorts of amazing things. World domination while depressed is not completely impossible its just a hell of a lot harder. Before people start accusing me of being a whiner and making excuses I would first ask those people a) do you currently have or have you ever depression? and b) can you shut your stupid
