Thursday Movie Picks: Summer Break

a weekly series hosted by Wandering Through the Shelves

I feel like I complain a lot lately but I could really use a summer break right now.

These are three films starring my (decade old) crush Matthias Schweighöfer that I've been meaning to rewatch to understand the dialogue as the plot are very easy to understand even without knowing the language.

a weekly series hosted by Wandering Through the Shelves

I guess I just don't want a lot of films about sports. It's not like there are a lot of movies about female athletes anyway though. It's always about this male champion and that male champion. Anyway, here's what I came up with with the help of Google.
