Uncommon Choices

What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times?

I don’t watch regular network TV or even standard streaming television. I watch a lot of foreign films and TV shows.

A Walk in the Clouds

My most romantic film

Ragnarok tv series

Norwegian retelling of the Nordic Gods story.

Jesus Christ Superstar

Saw it when I was 13. I’ve watched it every Easter since I bought in on DVD.

Toy Story-Need I say more?

I am certain there must be more but these are the ones which stand out for me. A romance, a myth, rock opera and timeless children’s tale.
