Off-Topic MLC at the movies
#140: December 31, 2012, 02:52:18 PM
Couldn't sleep for the last few nights so went a little over the top and did a MLC and BPD movie marathon:

MLC and infidelity:
Hope Floats (from the perspective of LBS)
Then she found me (two LBSers find each other)

Borderline personality disorder:
Young Adult
Fatal Attraction


Others that I might rent when I can afford to:
Black Swan
Chloe
Girl interrupted

Can anyone add a few to these lists?

Hi UP,  I have a few to add to your list most you can find on Netflix...

Never Forever
Take This Waltz
Seducing Charlie Barker
No Looking Back
Helen (the one with Ashley Judd) BPD
and a classic original of Fatal Attraction "Play Misty for Me"

They all have MLC or depression of some sort but the movie "Take this Waltz" TOTALLY SUMS IT UP!!!

Happy New Year Everyone....
Truly  :)

That's interesting UP.   Months ago my H mentioned to me that he had seen this film.  He didn't articulate much about it, but went out of his way to tell me, looked a bit shifty, and then simply said it was .......... ugggggh! 

I had no idea about the storyline, but I wonder if something hit a raw nerve with him?

American Beauty
Unfaithful
Inception (I only say that half jokingly - the surrealness isn't unlike their delusions, plus the underlying story of the marriage destroyed)
