With movies becoming more about revenue instead of art, I turn to the AFI 100 Greatest Movies of All Time for a cinematic adventure. These movies changed the world, so what will they do me? Can I expand my mind and see all of them before January 2011?

#51 West Side Story
Ok......I have to admit the opening number had me wondering if maybe there really was a Gay Mafia out there, but other than that I really liked the movie. The songs were wonderful, the actors are great (aside from how many of the "Puerto Ricans" were just white people with brown makeup...."brown face" if you will) and the story was timeless. The movie didn't drag and I can't believe that it was 2 1/2 hours long! Plus it's no shocker that I am a sucker for a love story/ tragedy. I just love a good cry!
