top 5 so and so


i love top five lists so much. so much that i will be posting many of them from now on. todays is top 5 movies about music.

5. a hard day's night (1964) - obviously the songs are amazing, but this is one of the most fun films you could ever see.

4. high fidelity (2000) - frears & company perfectly capture the spirit of the book. made the whole top 5 list process even more relevant.

3. this is spinal tap (1984) - what more should be said? fantastic music and possible the funnest movies of all time.

2. nashville (1975) - an epic sprawling masterpiece. one of altman's finest achievements.

1. almost famous (2000) - i know a lot of people who dismiss this film, but it's one of my favorites. it truly captures the spirit of the era.
