SJ ALEXANDER’S TOP 25 FILMS
Film is subjective. No one list can perfectly encapsulate the movie lover's experience, or account for individual taste. My list of Top 25 Films could mean little to others. That's the beauty of cinema. It means different things for different people. With that said, these films have been an instrumental part of my life, inspiring me, transporting me, and lifting me at times into the cinematic realms of bliss. Dramatic, much?Yeah, that’s the MOVIES.
