Throwback Movies from your childhood that were Just So Good and Unforgettable

Looking back at our childhoods, I’m sure many of us are thankful that we were able to grow up knowing these films because we honestly didn’t have many other forms of entertainment. (unlike those 1st graders nowadays who already have iPhones AND an iPad. talk about back in MY day.) But sometimes, it’s not about catching on the latest trend or movie. Sometimes, a little throwback is just what you need to reappreciate what you already have.
