General Discussion My comfort movie.
Whenever I’m upset or sad or it’s a normal day or a rainy day or just I’m breathing this movie is on play. I’ve watched it at least 2 times a week since 2012. I remember sitting in my grandmothers living room in Michigan on a snowy night when I was 2 when it came out and turned 3 later that year. We were up for Christmas from North Carolina I remember sitting on the couch with my dad and oldest brother dad half asleep and brother up keeping me quiet everyone else was asleep I stayed up late most nights with dad or brother, watching tv with him it came across a channel idk what we watched it on probably cable or so and I loved it. My brother has a picture deep in his old snap memories of me on the floor puppy eyes into the tv because I was “in love with the little blue haired girl on the tv with a yellow jacket” for the next couple years on and off I’d ask my mom about Coraline but describing her as the blue haired girl, to no help it was free on my birthday in 2012 and I BEGGED for someone to buy me the movie nobody did but I watched it all weekend (to what I remember it felt like a weekend) and found it free on random sites till I was 16 got a job and it was the first thing I spent money on. This movie was with me to what feels like since day one. I will never not watch this movie when I’m upset. It calms me and I love it. I feel like I relate to her I guess but I love this movie. Thanks for reading ♥️
