Shaun of the Dead

All of the Harry Potters :P

Love Actually

Woman in Black

Nightmare Before Christmas

I used to love Free Willy, but then about a year ago I started looking into the effects of keeping killer whales in captivity for a project, and I haven't been able to finish watching it because I've dissolved into tears every time and end up looking like I've just sniffed a hundred onions! :blush2:

Psycho and Some Like It Hot are my favourite films.

 

Two very different themes, but then someone pointed out to me that both have men cross-dressing in them.... :D

my top 3 films are

George Romeros Dawn Of The Dead

George Romeros Day Of The Dead

Tom Savinis Night Of The Living Dead '91

 

Aw, but what about Romero's original The Night of the Living Dead?! I haven't seen the sequels yet, but I love the original. Especially the ending.

Haha! I wouldn't have picked that theme. I love Psycho too. Chillingly brilliant. Have you seen the new(ish) show called Bates Motel, which is sort of based on Psycho? It's a really good show (in my opinion).

Yep, Psycho has that wonderful chilliness about it. 

 

I haven't seen Bates Motel, but it looks good from TV reviews - it has a Twin Peak-ness, and I loved Twin Peaks :D . TP hardly gets repeated, but it really should shown more often.

I'm adding Amazing Grace (2006) to my list.  It is the story of how William Wilberforce struggled for years to get anti-slavery laws passed in England, despite stiff opposition.  It made me cry, but at the same time it was wonderfully uplifting.
