ok so this is less a ranked list and more my personal lineup of films that feel like home, the ones i'll put on after a closing shift in pilsen or before a mural walk just to get in the mood. half of these i first caught at the music box on a whim and never recovered. not me crying over the skyline shots every single time lol
