Your best film ever?

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Jane Austen etiquette, manners, humour, and loping heads off zombies. What more do you want from a film

Boat Trip. A man upsets his travel agent and, instead of a male/female singles cruise he gets booked onto a gay cruise. I'd watch this over and over just to see Roger Moore playing a gay SAS officer who, with his team, help to save the day. He plays it totally straight (no pun intended).

Rat Race. So many big names in this film. Whoopi Goldberg, Rowan Atkinson, John Cleese and many more. A glorious farce. Hysterically funny.

For Brad Pitt fans you can't beat Meet Joe Black! Also my fave Xmas film is always Last Christmas with lots of George Michael songs, bit of a weepy but worth it! Emma Thompson is so funny in it.

Another vote for Last of the Mohicans - the cinematography, beautiful music, action sequences etc but mainly for Daniel Day-Lewis! Also one not mentioned so far, LA Confidential - Russel Crowe's breakthrough role and a fabulous film.

Should have won best soundtrack but didn’t. I can watch it over and over again.

When I was a child my favourite film was Korda’s The Jungle Book starring Sabu. I still love everything about it.

It’s on utube! That’s me done for the day, then!

My favourites are varied and many, I really loved Camelot with Richard Harris, the music was lovely. Also The World according to Garp, a wonderful Robin Williams early film.
Has anyone seen The Dollmaker, with Jane Fonda? It made me weep so much, such a really moving story. I would recommend it to anyone.

The Rocky Horror Piture Show (although it's second best to the stage show!)

AreWeThereYet

The Mission. For the music, the scenery, an actual story, Robert de Niro, Jeremy Irons, and a very young Liam Neeson. But an ending to make you weep.

Strangely I've never met anyone else who has seen it.

I loved it too - even requested DVD of it as a gift a few years ago.

My favourites are
Ryan’s Daughter
Seabiscuit
The Greatest Showman

Booby prize to La La Land!

The original Italian Job and Kind Hearts and Coronets =

The Year of Living Dangerously

The Twilight Samurai

Don't think these 3 have been mentioned up until now! The color purple, I know almost every line and cry buckets from start to finish. Big fish with Ewan McGregor and a more recent one with a great cast and souud track - Belfast

Out of Africa made such an impression on me at the time it was released and still consider it a film I woukd watch over and over. Story, acting and music, memorable

"The Ipcress File' which I saw when it came out in the 60's. I never tire of watching it and especially love the them tune. I played it continually on my 'Dansette' record player, driving my family crazy. I can never remember who the 'baddy' is so the ending remains a surprise... 'Harry Palmer' was so refreshingly different from 'James Bond", whom I never liked although Sean was much more 'my type' physically than Micheal. Oh...and I loved the fact that Harry Palmer could cook and immediately set out to find a man who could, which I did the following year...and..."Reader, I married him". Over half a century later, he still does most of the cooking...

Blade Runner (but anything with Harrison Ford, really).

Someone said Death in Venice - I can remember so many scenes in that film and it must be 50 years since I saw it - I even remember where I saw it and with whom. And the music was fantastic too.

It's a toughie but I think Gladiator.
For real oldies, All About Eve.

Agree Gladiator, or possibly Shawshank.

The original West Side Story, Last of the Mohicans, Dances with Wolves and The English Patient.

Yes loved it and still enjoy the soundtrack.

Quadrophenia. It takes me back to my Mod days in the 80s, all the scooters and parkas. I love all the music, have it on LP, CD and DVD. I saw The Who on their Quadrophenia tour, best concert ever. I still watch the film now forty odd years on, love it.

AreWeThereYet

The Mission. For the music, the scenery, an actual story, Robert de Niro, Jeremy Irons, and a very young Liam Neeson. But an ending to make you weep.

Strangely I've never met anyone else who has seen it.

Same here, thought the ending was so sad.

and then there was 'Zulu' too... Michael Caine again... Perhaps he is my 'type' after all...

I love the film Seven Pounds with Will Smith; it's the only film that I have watched twice in one day. A story of regret and redemption.

Just can't pick one. I <3 so many of them, for very different reasons.

I saw it! It was amazing. Especially the beginning, with the powerful soundtrack.

The Way We Were or Dr Zhivago
I've watched both dozens of times

So difficult to pick just one. What springs to mind is 3 Billboards outside Ebbing and Manchester by the Sea. But I shall think of lots more.

I loved both of those !
