When did it all begin?

In the beginning it was...
...sincerely I do not remember. I must have been 10 or 11 years old or something like that...it just struck me one day...like this...out of the blue and without any warning. Anything would change for me, my perspective on life, culture and knowledge.
He was called Cinema.
Love at first sight.
I do not know if he ever loved me back, or if he even knows I exist, I just know it is fulfilling and it is all that matters.
The first time he appeared to me, he was under the name of Stanley Kubrick, this I remember well, cause I would become obsessed with his movies for a long time.
Then he was an Italian guy...a guy named Federico Fellini, I remember well his Italian charm.
Then there was another English guy...called Alfred Hitchcock...and then a French one...called François Truffaut...and then there were many, many, many more.
All lovers.
All passionate and unforgettable.
I really do not know how many I had.
