Jaws



No joke!!! I know!!!!!!


Aside from a lot mentioned here,

Shawshank
Schindler's List
American History X
Boys Don't Cry
Life is Beautiful
The Notebook,

I also think Silence of the Lambs made me NOT TRUST ANYONE!!! I swear, I look over my shoulder A LOT from that movie!

Also, What Dreams May Come...DH and I bawled like babies.

Requiem for a Dream...yeah, didn't want to touch drugs after THAT one!



Ahhh, yes, Saving Private Ryan...holy crap, there needs to be a mandatory watching of that movie by teens and adults alike.

There's also a movie with Sally Field and Keifer Sutherland that still disturbs me. I don't recall the name. But Keifer was way too convincing in the role.

"DAD" with Ted Danson.
It helped me re-evalute my relationship with my father and helped me have a relationship with him again.

ever read the book? By William Wharton? Much better!

Steel Magnolias.

I love the way each women has their own problems but when the time was needed, they all would unite and help each other.

American History X - So chillingly real. I hated what I saw, but I've never forgotten it. Ed Norton is a phenominal actor.

Kids - If you thought the movie Thirteen shocked you, watch Kids. It was made in 1995.

No, I didn't even know there was a book.
Every time I watch the movie I cry, I can't imagine what the book would do to me.

Schindler's List
Requiem for a Dream
Poltergeist - Because of this movie I cannot watch horror movies.

Also, the show "The Wire" - last season was all about kids and it's deeply affected DH and I.

Meet The Robinsons - Yes, it's a cartoon, but the message has stuck with me... "Keep moving forward". Just such a great movie.

i just thought of another...

"Less than Zero"

I just saw it again recently and remembered about when I first saw it how it made me very afraid of the effects of drugs...

Re: What movie has ever had a profound effect on you

Three movies that affected me and left such a strong image in my mind I can't watch them again are:

American History X
Requiem for a Dream
Monster

A movie that actually changed my life:
Terminator 2 (I was completely captivated by the special effects and it inspired me to go to college for computer graphics design)
