I think How to Have Sex is the most relatable movie for teen girls
La Bella Estate shows perfectly lesbianism as art. that's how I saw the world as a lesbian child
MOVIES ABOUT TWIN FLAMES (imo)
The Notebook
Only You (1994)
Before Trilogy
Ma chi ti conosce?
Serendipity
Elemental
Pride & Prejudice
Other movies that you might like with similar themes: A Walk to Remember, Love at Second Sight, The Tearsmith (cringey, but that's the vibe), Moulin Rouge!
Rewatching I believe in unicorns cuz idk if I should break up with him or not (I kinda feel like Davina rn)
WHO HAS LETTERBOXD?!?!?!?! My user is strawbg1rl let's be mutualsss pretty plssss
Warning: the movies I watched are really random because I started this acc like a few months ago then deleted the app and started it again this month hehe
The secret of Moonacre
I watched this film yesterday and it's literally everything I love merged into one. There's unicorns, a moon princess, the wardrobe is to die for, would do anything to have the main characters bedroom, AND to top it off an enemies to lovers trope
Saw someone refer to Cartoon Saloon as the Irish Studio Ghibli and…
Yes. Yes it is. Seriously, watch their films if you have not had the pleasure already. Whether it’s the Irish Mythology trilogy
Or The Breadwinner, and upcoming ‘My Father’s Dragon’ with Netflix.
Watch these films. They are masterpieces of modern animation and innovation. I did my first film final on ‘The Breadwinner’ and have no regrets.
