Favorite Movies!

Being There

I like lots of movies, maybe I will mention a few more later...but this one stands out as a classic for me...perhaps because I aspire to be like the main character one day. :tongue:

I like to watch. :wink:

Good old Chance. But I love Brazil. That's my favorite Terry Gilliam movie that I've seen so far. Besides The Maltese Falcon though, I also love Half-Nelson, The Lady Eve, The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre, Breakfast At Tiffany's, Double Indemnity, Boogie Nights, Sunset Boulevard, The Bicycle Thief, Intolerance, Mr. Smith Goes To Washington, Out Of The Past, The Wolf Man (the 1941 version), A Place In The Sun, Take The Money And Run, Stagecoach (the John Ford version), and Random Harvest.

Have been kinda busy so haven't been able to keep up with this list! Recently watched "The Pianist", have to say it was really good. Now I just gotta pick one from here to watch! Oh decisions...... decisions.....

Ed and His Dead Mother.

thank you Showtime for flashbacks.

I just watched "The Adjustment Bureau" with MATT DAMON. I thought it was good. Different from what I expected.

Great movie choices...all favorites of mine too. They just don't make 'em like that anymore.

Just finished watching The Solid Gold Cadillac starring Judy Holliday and Broderick Crawford. It was broadcast on Turner Classic Movies. I'm feeling very happy at the moment. Good film.

 

[josemendez1]

The Social Network...by far, the best one of last year.

 

[CUBE]

An old movie that everyone should see is It Happened One Night. It still seems so fresh and wonderful. I have mentioned this before but can't recall the thread...maybe this one. LOL
