    Default What's your all time favorite movie?

    Bah, I can't decide. Don't even ask me about movies - I have 100 favorite movies and they change daily.

    -afx
    heh...anyway...today, it is probably Office Space...because it truly makes me want to cry.

    But for true substance, good plot and excellent acting?

    MONTY PYTHON'S THE HOLY GRAIL!!!!

    My top five, I think:

    Star Wars. It changed everything.
    LA Confidential.
    Sixth Sense.
    Memento.
    Aliens.
    Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

    So I can't count, OK?

    If I had to pick just one movie to watch over and over and over?

    Hrm...

    Probably Seven Samurai by Kurosawa.

    Or maybe Eyes Wide Shut by Kubrick - I swear this movie is such a puzzle. Either that or it's a huge fu to the audience. It is such a strange strange movie.

    Anything by Kubrick really. I especially enjoy Barry Lyndon.

    Okay, I could ramble endlessly...

    Also, add "Poison Ivy" to my list. I have that "slave bracelent" that Drew wears in the opening scene. I also wanted & (still do) that rope swing.

    Imitation of Life is a fave, but I like a lot of D. Sirk movies especially Written on the Wind and All That Heaven Allows. Great melodramas, and some awesome cinematography.

    And I dig Rock Hudson (in those latter two) and no I'm not gay!

    If you want to see a homage to Sirk's melodramas and the cinematography in those films, check out the recent movie by Haynes called Far From Heaven with Dennis Haybert and Julianne Moore.

    Good stuff.

    Sorry, can't help myself...

    Anybody like any of the Powell & Pressburger films?

    Including Peeping Tom, The Red Shoes, Black Narcissus, I Know Where I'm Going, The Life and Death of Colonol Blimp, etc.

    If you haven't seen them, try to check one out sometime - great technicolor by one of the legendary cinematographers Jack Cardiff.

    Okay, I'll step off the box.

    Joy Luck Club (fave girls-movie) and Seven Samurai (fave foreign) were already mentioned - I love those!

    Also adding Blade Runner (fave sci fi), The Last of the Mohicans (fave romance/action) & Rain Man (fave drama).
