AFI's 100 Greatest Movies













More than one month has passed since I wrote here last. I feel like I forget English... anyway, I've got to write something.

AFI, American Film Institute, renewed the 100 greatest American films of all time as the 10th anniversary edition.

4 RAGING BULL
5 SINGIN' IN THE RAIN
6 GONE WITH THE WIND
7 LAWRENCE OF ARABIA
8 SCHINDLER'S LIST
9 VERTIGO
10 THE WIZARD OF OZ

The other day, I found the site which you can watch good old movies for free!

I watched Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights last weekend. I prefer the latter. This month I read Greek tragedies, and it's similar to it. There is no man like Heathcliff in the world. It's mysterious but it might be true that the true things about human beings can be written by impossible characters.
