Favourite film/s, what are yours?

My very favourite is The Commitments. Also the Back to The Future trilogy.

I thought this thread would soon be started after reading Canadian Gran's "joyous" thread.

Ohhhh i havent been in other threads...

I am on a slooooow start this am with GN... i been cleaning the cooker top of allllll things, then sat down with coffee and thought of nice things other than Brillo pads and scouring pads hahahahaha.

Yes ive watched a bit of Back to the future.

Enjoy your day

I am a fan of Hitchcock films. North by North West and Vertigo I have seen a few times. Also like A wonderful Life as my Christmas film.

Yesterday dream was realised when I found 'Paint your wagon' on telly. Sheer happenstance as I'd just come in from the garden for a seat and a cuppa and I did a channel hop. Bingo. It's the most moralistic yet lighthearted fun film I've ever seen and I would seriously recommend it to everyone. Oh yesssss......

An old favourite hardly anyone else ever seems to have seen, is The Tamarind Seed, with a young Julie Andrews in her first ‘non-sweet’ role, and Omar Sharif as the Russian trying to recruit her as a spy - or is he?

Partly set in Barbados, and with some brilliant twists, plus the odd moment that really brings back that frightening Cold War feeling.
Also featuring a stunningly beautiful Sylvia Sims in a brilliantly acted part.
I have it on DVD and still watch it now and then.

Whistle Down The Wind is another, and the old Blithe Spirit.

Dr Zhivargo
Ryan’s Daughter

I also like P your Wagon. A Joyous film.

My desert island film would have to be Cinema Paradiso

My favourites are wide ranging.

Field of Dreams
Sense and Sensibility
Apollo 13
Moonstruck
These 4 I can watch over and over.

My favourite Christmas film is The Santa Clause. It isn't Christmas until I've seen it.

Gregory's Girl; Brassed Off; Key Largo; The Full Monty; The Pelican Brief; The African Queen; Seabiscuit; all the Fast & Furious series; the James Bond series. Private Benjamin; Beverley Hills Chihuahua; the Legally Blonde series; Road House; Ghost; Sister Act series; Home Alone; Die Hard; The Transporter series.

(A pretty eclectic bunch, but there ya go!)

I have quite a few but the top two are always...

1 Notes on a Scandal with Judy Dench
2 The talented Mr Ripley with Matt Damon.
After that almost too many to mention

Dancing with Wolves
Apollo 13
Pretty Woman
Miracle on 34th Street

Dr Zhivago and Gone with the Wind.

Some like it hot. Best last line in any film....

The Full Monty,
Bridges of Madison County,
Casablanca,
Now Voyager.

Strange but I only have lighthearted as favourites. I have many memorable dramas but they don't give me the element of joy I appreciate nowadays.

Oooooo some brilliant film choice favourites...
.

I also love ( i wont say are classed as favourites) any early Bond films love em...

This is she who has started a thread on films... hahahaha.

I have to say that despite the fact that its not classed as favourite ( i know the question was which are your FAVOURITE... hahaha ... oooops )

I do 'like' the film SERENDIPITY !!!!!!!!!

The Way We Were and Dances With Wolves.

Fire lit, warm delicious hot chocolate, settle down to watch film.....

Ive just painted a cold winters day scene, maybe because its bloomin cold outside today...

Always. Spielberg film.

Casablanca, to hear Bogart say ‘we’ll always have Paris’

My Fair Lady.

When Harry Met Sally

Goodnight Mr.Tom. yes a tv film

My absolute favourite is Ben-Hur with Charlton Heston, then in contrast 7 Brides for7 Brothers

Ohhhh yes Ben Hur, wow BBbevan very very powerful film.....

I too love ‘Some Like It Hot’. Others on my list are all oldies: ‘The Third Man’, ‘Black Orpheus’ and ‘Steel Magnolias’. I have not been to the cinema much in the last ten years as the sound is so loud I find it too uncomfortable. Oh I cannot leave out ‘Cabaret’I have it on my replay list band often watch a sneaky half hour of the Kat Club scenes. I would love to see the revival theatre production in London.

I just remembered Sleeping With The Enemy! Goodness, that was brilliant. I’d watch like a shot if it was on TV - must have a look at Netflix.

Muriel’s Wedding is another I’d def, watch again.

Ditto Spotlight - the true story of uncovering Catholic priest abuse in Boston.
And the one we saw in the same week in the cinema - about the chap who foresaw the financial crisis of 2008. Can’t remember the title - does anyone know? Would def, watch that again.
