Pulp Fiction also.

Flickers between that, Jackie Brown, Mrs. Doubtfire and The Truman Show for me.

I'm too much of a film nerd to even begin to answer that! Sure somebody put up a top 20 or so thread and I ended up sending 3 or 4 lists in. Ridiculous really.

:joker:
I don't even think I could name a top 20. It's not that I don't like films, I just find it hard to list them. Top 3 are Pulp Fiction, Monsters Inc and The Hangover.

TV on the other hand, I could write pages and pages about.

I really, really can't narrow it down to just one.

But the films that spring to mind are; Silence of the Lambs, 28 Days Later, Cloverfield, Children of Men, Irreversible, Reign Over Me.

I wouldn't be able to narrow it down to one neither...
I was going to list a very small shortlist, but there's just too many.
I did see Titanic 11 times in the cinema... :D

If I had to pick just one, I'd likely go with Blade Runner.

So hard to choose just one. If I had to chose it would be Cloverfield, such a brilliant film.

Harvey! Nobody ever knows what I'm talking about! Wait, are you talking about the one with the imaginery rabbit? Jimmy Stewart?

Yup - you pooka!

I first came across the movie on channel 4 about 1991 when things were bad one Saturday AM after a relationship split.........it made me smile again.

Now I have it on DVD for sad times, and have sent it to friends on 4 continents to cheer them up!

Everybody hhere has been changing IDs, so I almost asked Admin to give me 'Elwood P Dowd' cos nobody would understand the reference

Harvey is a great little flick, and it's still actually very funny.

For ages it was the original Get Carter.

Not sure now.

The most magical moment ever in a film for me has to be when the ageing Last Emperor of the film with the same name, opens a box he hid under his throne, containing a live cricket he put there as a boy. Always chokes me up.

Bit of trivia. The eagle-eyed will have noticed one of the old codgers drinking at the bar at the start of Get Carter has 5 fingers, and a thumb.

Best soundtrack too.

Dirty Dancing probably, I've seen it more than any other film. More reasonable choices then would be The Shawshank redemption, Se7en and The Usual Suspects

In Bruges

Urgh I don't think I can choose, but it would probably be between Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile and either Dirty Dancing or Pretty Woman...those are the films I can watch over and over and over and never get sick of them.

For me it's Kill Bill (both parts) and Lion King, I just never get tired of them. If I had to say all my favourite films though the list would be as long as my arm.
