Filmele bune ne motivează. Ne inspiră. Ne fac să râdem în hohote sau să plîngem în anumite momente. Un film bun are tot ce îţi trebuie pentru o seară perfectă sau o după amiază plăcută.
Filmele, pe lîngă scene memorabile, imagini și subiecte interesante, mai au și cuvinte de generic, spuse neobișnuit sau simplu, dar care rămîn în memoria noastră pentru mult timp.
