[7] The Upcoming Adult Presents: 18 Favourite Nostalgia Movies
Posted on the 26 February 2013 by Limette @Limette9How nostalgic you can become once the end of your days is in sight... Childhood days in my case, but it's tragic either way. Yes, nostalgia has entered my world and filled every single corner of it, dripping from the windows like rain after a stormy night and overshadowing my heart like death itself.It is indeed a kind of death and no matter how hard I try to forget and to live in the now, my mind keeps wandering back to the days when I didn't have to saddle my lasagne before I could eat it, to the days when summer meant strawberries and winter meant snow. The days before everybody tweeted a movie instead of watching it, the days when Dustin Hoffman and Jack Nicolson seemed in the least attractive to me and aging was a matter of dignity.
... Oh wait, all these things happened before I came to this planet? Who cares, I like nostalgia, once in a while. Here's my favorite movies to celebrate that melancholic feeling with, in no particular order:
