Are You Anybody’s Favorite Person?

This cool little micro-movie (4 minutes) by the Independent filmmaker Miranda July asks an interesting question:

While I very much appreciate the artistry of the film, and the idea of being beloved by friends and family is lovely, the premise of being someone’s "favorite" person seems a little impossibly exclusive. I’m not sure who I could point to if asked this question.

If pressed, I’d probably say my guy is my absolute favorite person (at least some of the time :-), but the truth is I have several "favorite" people in my life, all of whom are essential and deeply beloved. How about you? Do you have a favorite person? Are you somebody’s favorite? What do you think about this question?
