The A to Z films meme (Part 2)

Here comes the second part of my A to Z films meme. I have picked only one film from a particular letter; except P and S, where I picked two films each in lieu of letters Q and U respectively (I couldn’t come up with a single film from these two letters which I thought was very good). Thanks to all you guys who have done the meme and am looking forward to the ones who are yet to do it. I repeat once again that when you write few lines about the movie, try to write what made you personally like the film so much rather than writing the synopsis of the story (which we can anyways read ourselves).

Notorious: (1946)

Alfred Hitchcock’s bit less known but nevertheless perfect suspense drama. I think Notorious had exceptionally pure story line. In the sense that maximum effect comes from minimum of elements. Notorious is considered one of the best examples of suspense in cinema history, and I cannot agree more. Ingrid Bergman looked so beautiful and angelic. Where are those beauties now?

The A to Z of Films Meme (Part 1)

I got this interesting film meme from Chris. What’s interesting about this meme is that rather than choosing your top 10, 20, 50 etc films of all time, which is always an impossible thing to do for many of us, it asks you to list an alphabetical list of your favorite films, one for each letter of the alphabet. Yes, it’s still challenging because it could happen that your many favorite films start from the same alphabet (as it happened with me), but still easier and fun to do than trying to list best films. I have also written few lines after every film (except two), where I tried to sum up those things which I thought made me like the film so much. I did a bit of a cheating by listing two films starting from G, rather than one, as I could not come up with a really cool film starting from H. I tag all currently active bloggers on my blogroll, Amit, Anamika, Canadiancinephile, Nova, Nomad, Nita, Poonam, Prerna, Reema, Roop, Ruhi and Shefaly, to do this meme. All other readers of this blog are also more than welcome to do this tag. If you can, please write down few sentences or even few words explaining what made a particular film favorite for you..I think it will really richen your meme. Otherwise, just listing the films is also fine. I finished the listing till M today, remaining I will do later. You guys can also do in parts if you like.
