Living in an exciting city like Miami, gives me the opportunity to go to a club one night, a sporting event the next, and an artist's showing another night. We have book fairs, ethnic street fairs, Art Basel, antique shows and of course one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Going to the movies is always a favorite of mine, day or night.
So, what do I do on rainy days? Or when I want to just chill at home and escape from reality for a while....I watch DVDs. Watching my favorite movies and TV series is always a great way to spend alone time, or enjoy with a friend or two.
So, from someone who knows DVDs here's my list of Must-See movies and TV series for you to add to your own library or give as a gift to a fellow movie buff.
I chose these titles because they are my all-time favorites. Some will make you laugh, some will make you cry and others will take your breath away. I've included my Top 5 moives on DVD and Top 5 TV series on DVD. Below each of those lists, are my many other favorites, in no particular order.
I hope my list helps you select DVDs you will enjoy watching time and time again.
