Movies that you'll never forget, or wish you could!

wish I had never seen The Devils, Soldier Blue and Apocalypse Now.
Films I am glad I have seen and left lasting impressions - One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Easy Rider, Mrs Miniver, Whistle down the Wind.

In the late 60s I made the mistake of going to see The Boston Strangler as I was a fan of Tony Curtis. Not a very comfortable watch. Wish I could forget it.

Always love watching It's a Wonderful Life - a real Christmas treat.

The 2003 re-make of "The Italian Job". An all-american cast of fairly forgettable names except for Donald Sutherland and he must have been doing it for a lot of money.

Utterly dire! (Sir Michael Caine should have sued......or gone round and blown someone's bloody doors off.)

My all time favourite is American Beauty, and the soundtrack haunted me a long time till I realised what it was. I also loved The Last of The Mohicans, Close Encounters of The Third Kind, Poltergeist, Dances With Wolves and of course, The Godfather. Oh and the Sixth Sense.

Scum. The one film I instantly regretted seeing. It was well made.... unfortunately. So it sticks.

not a film, but when I was about 9 years of age, I watched Belsen on the news at the cinema..

I can still see those pictures,, they haunt me... how anyone can treat anyone like that is beyond me...

I wish I could forget One flew over the cuckoo's nest. Awful film.

The films that always grab my attention when I come across them and I have to watch them are: 5th Element (love the Opera singer), Love Actually (love all the characters) and About Time.
I think the worst film I have ever seen is "The Human Centipede." The synopsis from IMDB says: A mad scientist kidnaps and mutilates a trio of tourists in order to reassemble them into a human centipede, created by stitching their mouths to each others' rectums. You can imagine just how revolting it is. What tickles me is that there are 2 sequels to this...you wouldn't think that there were that many interested cinema goers for such dross!

Imitation of Life and Madam X saw both films staring Lana Turner. I was 16 and I cried for about a week after.

Favourite - National Velvet
Worst ever - The Notebook. Hated it. Appallingly bad death scene.

My favourite films differ with my mood - but if I am feeling a bit down then it has to be Hot Fuzz, Blazing Saddles and the Deadpool films (never fail to make me laugh).

Never let me go. About human clones, haunts me. Can't watch anything with that actress in it because of the association.

I am very surprised that you liked Jojo Rabbit so much. I thought it was rather unpleasant - not my sense of humour.
Also, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas was horrifying at the end. My favourite film is “Brooklyn”- simple - I nearly did the same but to Canada but fortunately never did!

Worst film ever: Jonathan Living Seagull.
Best films: Moulin Rouge, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, Bridges of Madison County and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. Many more fab films but too numerous to mention.
Don’t listen to the reviews of the new CATS film: it was entertaining with great music even if the overall premise is a bit bizarre. That’s TS Eliot’s fault!

Stella14; me too. It came on the tv one night and I turned it off straight away, only to realise the tv in the kitchen was also on and I had to brave going into the kitchen to turn it off. Even then I felt scared. Soon after I'd seen it at the cinema I stayed at a remote farmhouse in Wales. My boyfriend went out for the night leaving me on my own till the early hours and a window started rattling upstairs. He came back to find me sleeping in front of the fire downstairs as I was too scared to go upstairs.

The Deer Hunter and Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence. Both gave me nightmares for weeks !

Nobody has mentioned 1917, a film I would have liked to see but my daughter put me off. I enjoyed Little Women instead. As for LalaLand… what a waste of time that was.
Good from the past: The boys from Brazil, and Gone with the Wind.

Wish I could forget "Deliverance", so horrible! And "Don't Look Now" in Venice - it still gives me the creeps when I see a child in a red coat! Nightmares. I'd love to go there but not sure I ever will. "Pride and Prejudice" I can watch again and again - Donald Sutherland laughing at the end is great.

Someone mentioned One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Fabulous film!

I actually went to sleep thinking about films last night!

12 Angry Men had a huge impact on me

The Angry Silence. I was about 12 when I saw this and was horrified at how people were treating the character who refused to strike.

Also another film I saw as a child was Life for Ruth.

A child badly injured. Father refused a blood transfusion. Court case. Brilliant film and very thought provoking

Also the Mandy films that were mentioned earlier . I loved those.

Can't really think of a film I wish I hadn't seen.

Maybe one will come to me tonight!

Favourite - Annie - My daughter was quite poorly as a 2 year old and didn’t sleep well, and it was the only film that would pacify her. We watched it on repeat for months. So if they’re ever looking for someone to play Annie again I could audition and not fluff my lines once, as I’d have nothing to learn

Worst - The Nightmare on Elm Street films. My stupid ex brother and his wife decided it would be fine to let my then 4 year old watch it when he was babysitting one evening. I had months of nightmares and pure fear that Freddie Krueger was coming to get her.

I think my all time favourites are Con Air and Fifth Element. My go to films that I’ve watched again and again

The last episode of M.A.S.H.
I saw it about 30+ years ago. I can't ever get it out of my head. I am crying now.

Of course, I never watch 'The Green Mile' now, either. I can't stop crying.

Among my favourites are, 'High Noon' and 'To Kill a Mocking Bird'.

Favourites - Some Like It Hot and English Patient (must watch it again)

Hated - Silence of the Lambs. It took days to get it out of my head.

Biggest waste of time - Manchester by Sea and Le Mans 24 Hours, even if Steve McQueen was the star.

Fisherman’s friend great film
Stan and Olly not what I expected
1917 good, but thought provoking
Greatest showman fantastic
The favourite unforgettable in a bad way!
