@novelistASH Living near the RSC is so cool, especially seeing the Shakespeare parades in April.
My top plays:
1-Mamma Mia
2-The Nightmare Before Christmas
3-A Christmas Carol (but like specifically the 2023 Christmas RSC one lol)
Haven't watched many musicals/plays (hence the short list), although I really ought to! As for Shakespeare plays:
1-Macbeth
2-The Merchant Of Venice
3-Hamlet/Romeo and Juliet
4-Much Ado About Nothing
and I've yet to see Othello! Here, The Tempest is a massive thing (although it's to be expected haha). Come to think of it, I've not read either of these.
And there's too many old movies for me as well!
My list as of (somewhat) recent is:
1-It's a Wonderful Life
2-Terminator
3-E.T (this one has a special place in my heart ahaha)
4-Casablanca (got halfway through, but our power went out. I still enjoyed it, but I've yet to finish it.)
5-The Truman Show
6-Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (not really old but it's too good)
and 7, 8 and 9 are Bollywood movies, lol.
7- Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (just a silly little romantic movie, one of the only romances I used to be able to stand)
8-Mera Naam Joker (it's a pretty interesting romance film about outcasts)
9-Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge (sweet and lovely but troublesome unwanted guest it's a very funny movie)
and 10 is back to English haha:
10-Avengers: Age of Ultron (again not old but it's so pivotal in the whole marvel franchise I love how it's done)
11-Spirited Away (had to include this, one of the first movies I ever watched)
