In an earlier #TwitterMigration phase, the #7FilmsToKnowMe intro went around. It was fun. I found some people to follow who shared my tastes.

I was delighted to find others who loved Albert Brooks' "Defending Your Life".

Anyway, if that was you--my housemate spotted this thing today and gave it to me. Now I give it to you.

This one was hard, because I enjoy nearly every movie I watch and I don't really have favorites. So I am focusing on a specific time in my young adult life when I didn't have cable (I still don't have cable ), so I watched the same small collection of VHS tapes over and over.

Moving from home.social to masto.ai (my 2nd move), here are some notable toots and/or tell what kind of a tooter I am.

I'm not going to post links from home.social since it will be closing soon so those toots will be a part of history, I guess.
