Wildcard Wednesday--Luke's Must See Movies


Now on Wednesday, I get a wildcard, which means I can post on whatever topic I want to post.

Tonight, while we were at play practice, The Princess was having a conversation with her friend Luke about the movies he has not seen. He has seen quite a few since the year 2000, but she was shocked at the movies he hadn't seen before that year.


So she started making a list. It all started with "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" and "The Sting". (We aren't even sure Luke knows who Paul Newman and Robert Redford are...isn't that sad.)

So, here are some of the movies The Princess feels her friend Luke must see. If you have any to add to the list...please let me know. They must have come out before 2000.


1. The Sting

2. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

3. Ferris Bueller's Day Off

4. The Breakfast Club

5. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

6. Young Frankenstein

7. Sneakers

8. The Fugative

9. U.S. Marshals

10. Benny and Joon

11. Edward Scissorhands

12. Shakespeare in Love

13. The Truman Show

14. You've Got Mail

15. Dead Poet's Society

16. Chariots of Fire

17. Airplane

18. The Princess Bride

19. All Alfred Hitchcock movies

20. All Mel Brooks movies
