Can’t work out the rest at all! Although 1 and a couple others sound familiar.

12. The Great Escape
Archie… you’re hopeless. This was the girl’s movie.
9: Breakfast at Tiffany’s
14: Dirty Dancing
14) Argh… shit… I know this one. It’s a beautiful moment of hopelessly despairing confession… Dammit… Ten Things I Hate About You?
No, She’s All That.
If not that, then it’s another film I’ve seen, I know that much!
1. American Beauty
And that’s all I can get…
The only solid conclusion I can come to over this is that you have really weird taste in movies.
Well done, yes this is in fact true.
You’re not venturing a guess at even one of them?
At a guess, completely out of the blue, and from knowing you more than from knowing the film, either 11 or 13 is from Quills.
There is a quote from Quills in there but it definately isn’t 11 or 13.
Maybe it’s 2?
3: Velvet Goldmine. XD I adore the film far more than is healthy.
10: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
11: The Thomas Crown Affair.
