Movies

My favorite movie that I saw in either 2013 or 2014 would have to be “The Fault in our Stars” which was directed by Josh Boone and was based off of the novel, by John Green. The first time I saw the movie was at Century Theatres at Oakridge shopping mall. I loved this movie so much because it was one of the few movies that are based off a book, which stays true to the actual books storyline. The message in the movie touches my heart and shows me how important it is to make the best out of life, while being grateful for what I have.

My all time favorite movie would have to be “The Nightmare Before Christmas” directed by Tim Burton. This movie has been my all time favorite movie, because I have always loved the unique characters, the unforgettable songs, and of course the story. To this day, I still continue to watch this movie when ever it is on, while following along with lines that I have memorized.
