Movies have so much to offer. I find myself most drawn to movies that open doors to other realms – the surreal, dreamlike, absurd, melancholy, otherworldly, moody, irreverent, tragic, passionate and exuberant.

But then again, simply a good story or well-crafted piece of work is all you need to step outside of mundane life. A good film can offer a brief escape, a glimpse of clarity, or a moment of connectedness. A great film can change the way we feel or think.
