FAVOURITE FILM OF ALL TIME

[Ms Thrifty]

Impossible to pick one. A top ten for each year would be challenging enough for me.

F3lix, did you just give away the ending to Logan's Run???

Don't worry I haven't, That's why Logan goes on the run.

I like your idea of a genre top ten. I'll have to see what I can come up with.

I like Pretty Woman and the Shawshank Redemption.

I just love its a Wonderful Life but so many, what about the best film for each genre now that would be easier...mind you only slightly

[tweedledumb]

Can't choose one film but 2 that immediately come to mind:

Chinatown
Jacob's Ladder

Schindler's List just pips The Shawshank Redemption for me :)

It's interesting how your list stacks up when you're just picking one film over another.
There my current top 2 are American Beauty and Trainspotting

Great site, thanks for the link!

Yeah it's quite an intersting site, if they're close in my head I just pick which I'd want to watch again more if it was on TV right this minute.

It also reminds me that I really have many, many favourites when it comes to films:
Schindler's List, The Shawshank Redemption, LA Confidential, Saving Private Ryan, The Matrix, Braveheart, American Beauty, Apocalypse Now, The Doors, Groundhog Day, American History X to name but a few...

I've also got some new ones edging in too:
Juno, The Departed, The Dark Knight etc

Then again, it's frustrating when you have to pick between two masterpieces (e.g. I got LA Confidential and Chinatown) and then two godawful pieces of crap (Forrest Gump and The Da Vinci Code)...

As I said, if they're close in my head I just pick which you'd want to watch again more if it was on TV right this minute.

Oh, and LA Confidential over Chinatown IMO!
