101 Inspiring Life Lessons from Movies: A No-Spoiler Movie Guide [eBook]

Description

About 101 Life Lessons from Movies:

In My Opinion Flicks was built on a desire to create purpose out of hours and hours of movie and TV consumption that I used as a coping mechanism for dealing with what felt like a very directionless life.

Taking time to evaluate the stories that occupied my time and derive meaning, depth, and purpose from them turned a time-consuming pastime into a meaningful, therapeutic project: 101 Life Lessons from Movies.

Initially, this book was a free printable, one that was seldom (if ever) downloaded. Not before long, I disappointedly relegated it to the back corners of my Google Drive, counting it a failure and a waste of time.

On the 5-year anniversary of In My Opinion Flicks – 5 years of growth, keeping this dream alive, and enjoying movies as I learn to navigate my tumultuous 20’s – I stumbled across this failed project. I reflected on that time in my life, felt the passion in my strive for purpose, and decided that, hey, this eBook is actually pretty good.

Years later, the heart of the lessons still shines through, and I also am a little more willing to believe that my contribution to the movie world, no matter how small it may seem, is still valuable.

So, here it is. Available for consumption if you’re curious. Whimsically priced at $1.01, I think it’s a cute read. A bit dated as most of the movies are either old school classics, or less prominent releases between 2017 and 2021 but the life lessons are timeless.

Here’s what you’ll find in 101 Life Lessons from Movies:

• 26-page eBook
• 55 movies with movie ratings
• 101 Life Lessons, both serious and unserious
• Movie Rating Scale
• No Spoilers!
• Movies from varying genres: Romance, Documentary, Animation/Family, Drama, Mystery/Action, and Comedy
• Classic, Popular, and Obscure Films included
• One sentence movie review with rating out of 10 popcorns (or stars) for every film movie
• Really cute graphics (like, I’m not a graphic designer, but I put my foot in that (metaphorically, of course))

I hope you’re at least amused by this little project of mine and can find a level of connection with it.

Any suggestions for improvement (or if you want a part 2…), feel free to let me know 🙂

Peace, love, and lots of popcorn,
