I've seen some but not enough to vote.I voted for All About My Mother but I should do a marathon.
I actually consider a lot of movies to be life-changing! I take them to my heart and they melt into my personality.

Same here. Have only seen three so far.

All About My Mother is my favorite (Talk to Her/Volver being the others I've seen).

I actually chose Live Flesh for some great acting by everyone involved including Penelope Cruze and Chavier Bardem. 
I’ve lied to men who wear belts. I’ve lied to men who wear suspenders. But I’d never be so stupid as to lie to a man who wears both a belt and suspenders.
