I just started doing this for myself this year and my method has been using Google Sheets. Just a few columns for different types of spending and some charts, nothing fancy.

The neat part about using Google Sheets is that you can download the app on your phone, which makes updating it on a daily basis easier. I actually kind of look forward to updating it after I spend money now.

Also I tend to use my credit card for every purchase that I’m able to. It’s a good way to build credit and have a record of everything you spend, just make sure you only spend as much as you can immediately pay off

I'm tired of it being in these lists. No movies before the 60s should be in these lists, inflation is irrelevant, it's about the sheer aspect of how movies played in those times, it's widely different to the blockbuster film structure world. Movies stayed in theaters for ungodly amounts of time in those days and saw multiple re-releases as theaters were the only place to watch movies.

Gone with the Wind's initial theatrical run was 4 years longs, and that run made $504m adjusted for inflation, no where NEAR the top. The rest of its billions upon billions of "box office" came from 10 re-releases between 1947 and 1998.
