Amadeus 1984
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
This film is by the far the best depiction of what it must've been like to be a rockstar in the 18th century. The actors playing the piano are really playing the music. That really makes all the difference with a film about the MAN himself, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The acting performances in this film are extraordinary -- and that's not a word I use lightly. This film won 9 Academy Awards, pretty much sweeping the 1985 Oscars. Tom Hulce…

Princess Mononoke 1997
Today I needed an escape from reality, and so I sought refuge at the movie theater. AMC happened to be showing "Princess Mononoke." This is my second Studio Ghibli film I've had the pleasure of seeing, the first being "My Neighbor Totoro."
I wish I had known before I booked my movie ticket that this film was dubbed, not subbed. Gasp. I am a firm believer that subbed is better than dubbed. However, in all honesty, the dubbing of this…
