I am a movie fiend so it is really hard for me to pick favorites. I love very old and very new movies and feel blessed to be able to enjoy this type of entertainment. With all that said...I guess I would list the following as a few of my favorites.

Gone With the Wind
Anything starring Meryl Streep
Pride and Prejudice and anything adapted from the works of Jane Austin
Meet Me in St. Louis and anything with Judy Garland in it
All of the dance movies starring Fred Astair and Ginger Rodgers
Shall We Dance
Anything with Bette Davis in it
All of the Godfather movies

Oh, I could go on and on and on. I really couldn't say I have a definite favorite as it is so very hard to choose but I do tend to lean toward movies that are epic in story or with truly genius performance artists. I love them all!! There have been others that have already been mentioned. Really too many to list here! Looks like we have a lot of video fans and I think that's great!!

Britster · 04-28-2013, 03:33 PM

Oh, I totally forgot my 'gangster' movies. I LOVE Goodfellas, Pulp Fiction and The Godfather.

OHHH and Life is Beautiful! One of my fav foreign films.

Brit have you watched Django? I am not a big fan of Quentin Tarantino and at one point of the movie I had to remind myself it was his movie because it got a little bloody. I loved it though!

I just watched it last week! I really loved it, thought Jamie Foxx was great, but I REALLY loved Christoph Waltz. I was a bit unimpressed with the storyline, to be honest... but the movie was done amazingly well and the acting was superb!

I agree about Christoph Waltz! My husband and I were both like who is this guy he's amazing! I thought Leonardo DiCaprio was great too! Really great acting all the way around but you are so right about Christoph Waltz!

I forgot Finding Nemo! I've seen that movie abou 20 times & I still cry

MandiesMom · 04-29-2013, 05:30 AM

Oh and most of you probably don't know my obsession with Superman. Let's just say that my screen name on every other thing i do online is Lois5669.

I purposely didn't list any of the Superman movies in my top 5 but the original with Christopher Reeve is probably my overall number 9 or 10.

I am soooo hoping that Man of Steel (coming out June 14th) will sky rocket it's way into my top 5

SophieKatesMom · 04-29-2013, 06:26 AM

I forgot to add Somewhere in Time, filmed on Mackinac Island in my homes state of Michigan. I know many people who spent their summers working on Mackinac Island (some were extra's in that movie).
