#13: What’s your favourite/preferred genre of film?

Er. I guess the best way to describe the films I like to watch would be philosophical/reflective fringe-of-mainstream drama.

This genre is probably best exemplified by films like Richard Linklater's Waking Life, dramaticised biopic Into the Wild, cult hit Donnie Darko and pretty much anything written by Charlie Kaufman (Being John Malkovich, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Adaptation et al).

So I'm not all the way indie/underground/cult, but I'm definitely not frat boy comedy, blockbuster action or arthouse noir.

Day 14 - What’s the first film you remember seeing in the cinema?
Day 15 - What film do you wish you had never seen?
