I thought there was a thread for this, but I cant find it so I am starting another one.

 

I wanted to say that "Beaches" with Bette Midler is a real favourite of mine. I have just been listening to the song she recorded related to this film "Did you ever know that your my hero" what a great song, what a great film.

Wow. That's one of my faourites too. One of only a few films I would give 10/10. Others include:

*Pirates of the Caribbean - all 3. I love Johnny Depp and this is utter heaven.

*Girl Interrupted - don't know why I love it but I do.

*Finding Neverland - again with Johnny Depp.

*Clue - a must see for everyone.

*One True Thing - I'm a big big big fan of Meryl Streep.

*World Trade Centre - I thought it was very tastefully done.

I'm currently trying to work out a list of my top ten films for a poll on another web site.

I've whittled my choices down to the following, but I'm still trying to work out the exact order:

Amelie

Blade Runner

Sideways

Close Encounters of the Third Kind

The Matrix

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

Jaws

Spirited Away

Posted
Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind

 

Good film, I must watch it again some time.

 

LA Confidential

 

The Godfather

 

Silence Of the lambs

 

Singing in The rain

 

LA Confidential: Organised crime and guns

 

The Godfather: Organised crime and guns

 

Silence Of the lambs: Serial killers ahoy!

 

Singing in The rain: Gene Kelly

 

I can see a pattern there!

In all seriousness though, I do like LA Confidential, a brilliantly conceived and realised film.

My favourite tv programs are Dexter, CSI and Criminal Minds. Even more of a pattern!!! I like High School musical though so i cant be that "dark"

Love Life of Brian. But I think I must be the only person of my age to hate things like High School Musical and Camp Rock and Hannah Montanna... *shivers*

 

Also I love the new-ish St Trinians- we watched it on one of the last days of the school year last year, not knowing what to expect, and we were all hooked! :D

Two movie I can watch over and over again and never get sick of them.

 

In fact, I seem to recall watching Girl, Interrupted 3 times in one week. I think I hired it, and was so impressed that I bought it and then it was on TV :roll:

 

And The Shawshank Redemption is another one that stands up to repeated viewings. I could go on but I won't - I'm pretty sure I've posted all of this elsewhere.
