My #4 movie takes a unique turn from the prototypical Hollywood-love angle and tackles the topic with a fresh blend of real-life.

KOA's 100 Films: 4
By: Luke Florence
Love is a theme that Hollywood has been exploring for as long as anyone can remember. Often, it is portrayed as a fairy-tale where Prince Charming comes to sweep Cinderella off of her feet. Other times it follows a basic formula where two people meet, they fall in love, break-up, but get right back together at the end. There's nothing wrong with these characterizations of love, except that they are missing a taste of reality.
My #4 movie takes a unique turn from the prototypical Hollywood-love angle and tackles the topic with a fresh blend of real-life.

KOA's 100 Films: 5
By: Luke Florence
Phew. Let's take a moment and collect ourselves.
In the past four months I've rehashed 95 of my 100 all-time favorite films. And now we are left with my top-five. Only five more to go.
For some - and by some I mean most - of you, my #1 movie will not be a surprise. If you've asked me in the last 15+ weeks then you already know. If you've followed this blog at all in the last 5+ years then you already know. If we've ever been friends in my 2+ decades of living then you already know. The real surprises will occur in the buildup to my #1.
Matt Barnes has already put four of my top five on his list, which leaves just one lonely film that hasn't appeared on our blogs.
That movie finds itself at #5 but within it you will find my all-time favorite movie quote. It comes in response to the question, "how do you write women so well?"
