Who are Nick and Kaitlin?

I’m Kaitlin Broadbent! I’m twenty years old and originally from Maryland. About nine months ago I met Nick Manzi and we’ve been inseparable ever since. Nick is born and raised Texan so we’ve had to deal with little cultural differences the entire time we have been together. He is super into sports and has grown in a culture that highly values sports whereas I have pretty much never cared about or been interested in sports. Nick finds it hilarious that I’ve never had Whataburger. Besides our cultural divide, Nick seems to believe that there are classic movies my childhood is missing. He always tells me I’m the worst film student because I haven’t seen any movies. Well I’d like to give his movies a chance.

I’ve asked Nick to pick ten movies he thinks I should have seen in my childhood. Together, we will watch all ten and I want to keep track of my opinions. He is partially right, for a film student I haven’t seen a whole lot of the classics. I want to take this as a chance to go through and see why these films are considered classics, at least in Nick’s opinion. I also want to have some awesome movie snacks and share those on their own page under Snacks. I hope anyone that has seen Nick’s picks can find humor in my opinions and anyone that hasn’t seen these movies can get an idea of what the movies are about. I feel as though a lot of people younger than me may not have seen these as well and can hopefully gain a little insight about these films.
