I have decided to copy an idea from one of my Flixster friends (RThornhill) and leave a comment with each of the movies that have been recommended to me, that I choose to mark as "wanting to see". This comment will include the username of the person who recommended the particular film to me. Putting this comment will allow the people who recommend movies to me to be able to see which movies I have marked as "Want To See It" - based on their recommendation. It will also allow people to see that I don't ignore recommendations, I do enjoy recommendations and take a lot of the recommendations I get into consideration!

This film was recommended by RThornhill. Thanks!

"Once In A Blue Moon" is the epitome of childhood imagination and adventure! Yet the themes of growing up and discovering ones' self in a time of change for Canada, within a unique and sometimes strained family dynamic, are folded in amoungst the storyline to create a touching and thoughtful film beyond the simple fun of this imaginative story. Wonderfully shot with warm colors and creative camera work and editing; and fantastically cast with beautiful individuals who make each of the characters so special! Great.

I've probably said this before, but when a person has the ability to make you truly enjoy something without saying a word- they've got something special. That's what Buster Keaton has- because throughout this whole film, I couldn't stop smiling, and I found myself actually laughing out loud and really enjoying this. And he never says a word! Magic. This one's really adorable and charming. See it!

This film is ruddy brilliant! First of all, the special effects that were created in this film are absolutely incredible for the times! The dream sequence is amazing; I particularily enjoyed the part where he gets dropped in the middle of all the different locations- haha, so innovative and unique! Secondly, Buster Keaton's stunts were all performed by him, as he is known for- and the stunts in this film are CRAZY! This film truly proves that Buster Keaton went the extra mile to make a film, and this is absolutely one of the most creative and ground-breaking films I have seen! Oh- by the way- it sure is funny, too! Love it, love it, love it!
