1. The princess Bride
2. It's a Wonderful Life (I'll only watch it alone as i WILL cry at the end)
3. 12 angry men
4. Das Boat
5. Love actually (yea it's a chick flick but what the hell)

I'd like to have The Worlds fastest Indian is my honerable mention. I'd by a ticket to watch Sir Anthony Hopkins make a sandwich.

There are so many great films it really is impossible to rank them down to just five, or ten, or even one hundred.

Plus, I can never think of them all when asked, so I defer to AFI's Top 100.

Some of my picks from that list:

The Godfather
Casablanca
Lawrence of Arabia
Wizard of Oz
The Searchers
Sunset Blvd.
On the Waterfront
Chinatown
Double Indemnity
Apocalypse Now
Maltese Falcon
Treasure of the Sierra Madre
Dr. Strangelove
King Kong (1933)
Rocky
Netwrok
African Queen
Unforgiven
Shawshank Redemption
The Apartment
Spartacus
Sophie's Choice
Blade Runner

Some not from the AFI list:

Public Enemy
The Red Violin
Bobette's Feast
Mrs. Miniver
The Three Godfathers (that's one movie; not the three different Godfather movies)
Stagecoach
Rio Grande
Red River
One, Two, Three
Sweet Smell of Success
Cool Hand Luke
Hud
The Road Warrior
The Elephant Man

[teddy037.2]

off the top of my head...

amelie
grail
citizen kane
slap shot
big fish

[Stinky Wizzleteats]

Another couple that I would add to my list would be:

Runaway Train
American Graffiti


I keep on thinking of more every day, but these are movies that I would watch all the time & never get old.
