Favourite Film Of All Time.

[simmo]

A lot of my favourites have already been listed, Goodfellas, Shawshank, Pulp Fiction, Usual Suspects, Se7en but of those that haven't I will throw into the ring a different kind of film....Airplane

Just thought of another one not mentioned too, the best foreign film I have seen is Life is Beautiful.

mostly anything with Leo in it

Agreed Leo is GOD.

One flew over the cuckoo's nest

I watched the first hour of OFOTCN and couldn't watch any more as it was pissing me right off with the stereotyping.

Shallow Grave is my favourite. A creepy psychological thriller with brilliant acting by Ewan McGregor and David Tennant.

 

[Mellotron]

Labyrinth - end of thread.

David Tennant? Do you mean Christopher Ecclestone?

Meade's Ball in a "normal" posting shock!

Seriously MB I love your postings, they always bring a (sometimes confused) smile to my face.

I am clearly having an offday. I'll be dysphasiastically perplexed again soon, i promise.

Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid. Nothing beats it for a Sunday afternoon with a good pint.....

Some great selections there Mr Spielberg - Schindlers List, Se7en, Magnolia, ET, Silence of the Lambs, Saving Private Ryan, Pulp Fiction and Gran Torino are all in my top 10 or so. I'd add Best in Show, Signs, Up, Toy Story, Kill Bill and No Country for Old Men and the first 3 Indiana Jones films.

glad someone put 'signs' up . not my fave film but id give it a 9/10 , most people seem to think its shit. personally i find it terrifying

again not my favourite film but a little know film with a young sam rockwell in (best actor around at the moment i think) and john turturro (another brilliant actor). its called box of moonlight , about an unlikely friendship between a stuffy mid life crisised salesman and a mad hippy bloke called the kid. 9/10

its called 'box of moonlight' and i reccomend it to anyone. think uncle spielberg may like it, theres a reccommendation for you

Box of Moon Light (1996)

 

[ATFC Seagull]

Friday Night Lights
Goodbye Lenin
Gangs of New York

(Plus all the standard ones already mentioned - Godfather trilogy, Goodfellas, Saving Private Ryan etc).

 

[dannyboy]
