The films you love and will never forget

Oh and any Will Hay or Norman Wisdom films

Yes the classic Jane Eyre is up there with American Werewolf in London and the original Christmas Carol.

Brief Encounter with Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard.

Modern film - Harry Brown with Michael Caine perhaps.

The best comedy I ever saw was Some Like it Hot with Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis.
North by Northwest with Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint and James Mason. I liked the part with the crop spray aircraft best.
As for a modern film, one that has everything. Field of Dreams with Kevin Costner, about a man who hears a voice telling him to build a baseball field in his corn. I could watch it every day.

I think I would have to choose Doctor Zhivago. I cry every time I watch it.

The first film I remember having a great affect on me was "Carve Her Name With Pride". I think it was the beginning of my love of anything to do with WWII.

Night of the Hunter is a brilliant film. DH and I watched it when we had just moved into our first home - a cottage in the middle of nowhere!

Really scary

Those tattoos on his fingers callgirl?

Imitation of Life,
I`ll Cry Tomorrow
Dark Victory
Many, many musicals
A film that always freaks me out it`s so creepy, but I always watch it when it`s on, is Night of the Hunter, an old black and white Robert Mitchum film.

High Society with Grace Kelly, Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Celeste Home. Who wants to be a millionaire, True Love, Well did you ever, what a swell party this is, etc. I must be just about word perfect, I’ve seen it so many times!

The Inn of the Sixth Happiness about the life of Gladys Aylward.

The black and white version of Jane Eyre.I think Elizabeth Taylor played the part of Jane and the whole film was much more atmospheric than the colour versions.

My favourite film of all time is Ben Hur, with Charlton Heston. I first saw it as a teenager on holiday in Bournemouth. I must have watched it hundreds of times. I am nearly word perfect.

The Producers 1968 directed by Mel Brooks with Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel. Brilliant acting, really funny, unusual story, outrageous, and also strangely poignant. It was remade as a musical in 2007 with Matthew Broderick and amazingly I thought the remake was even funnier.

Fiddler on the Roof

Seven Brides for seven brothers always cheers me up.

West Side Story.

Well, It's got to Brief Encounter, the Celia Johnson version
