I love movies, always have, always will. I love good movies even more! So, I decided it was time to make sure I've seen what's commonly accepted as the 100 greatest, as decided by the AFI. Some of the movies on the list I've seen a million times, some I've seen maybe once when I was little. With the help of my streaming subscription to Netflix, and getting my little red envelopes in the mail too, I will definitely conquer this list - and I can't wait! Please feel free to watch along or add comments about your movies as I watch them! Get the popcorn and milkduds ready!

#91 Sophie's Choice

1982
Director: Alan Pakula
Starring: Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline, Peter MacNicol


I was dreading this one... I'd seen it once before, many years ago. And it was not easy to watch the second time around either. 
Beautiful story telling, and acting.  You get glimpses of Sophie's life in Poland throughout the movie, only guessing at what her struggles were like. But once she breaks down at the end and tell of her choice, you feel her complete anguish and the horror of it all.
