What is your favorite Movie? (Vanity)
now | ezo

Posted on 02/20/2003 4:00:09 PM PST by ezo4

I’m sitting here after work and pulled out the “Last of the Mohicans” and I’m wondering what my fellow freepers like for there favorite movies. I would like more for my collection of dvd’s. Current and older movies? Doesn’t matter what it is.

Just a little break from the daily news and politics.

I have quite a few that I like and I’m looking for more. Hit me back

Oh, that Moonlight Sonata scene was amazing. I welled up a number of times during the movie.

A month after I saw "IB" in the theater, Sir Georg Solti was a guest conductor with the San Francisco Symphony. I went to see him, and was SO glad I did. It was magnificent. I have to dig the program out, but I do know that Beethoven was on the menu.

Schroeder has great taste in composers. :-) I have to go get the DVD now!

It's about time someone said back to the future!
I was beginning to think that no one else liked it but me.

Midnight Run is another movie I enjoy watching multiple times. I LOVE Dennis Farina as the perpetually-p'o'd Mob guy.

After posting last night I went to bed thinking about this. I have seen so many movies and all of my favorites were mentioned by others except for these:

Conspiracy Theory (Mel Gibson and oh well, Julia Roberts, but still a great movie)

Close Encounters of the Third Kind

Minority Report was really good

and one of my favorites...The Scarlet Pimpernel! The Leslie Howard/Merble Oberon version was really good but there was a more recent one done that was excellent (may have been a TV movie).

"They seek him here, they seek him there,
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere...

Is he in heaven? Or is he in hell?
That mad, elusive Pimpernel!" (I think that's close anyway)

"The Wind and the Lion". My favorite scene was when the Marines came marching in to that sultan prince's castle and whooped ass.

"The Women,"

God I love that movie! I just saw it the other night. I love old, old flicks. Ninotchka, The Barrets of Wimpole Street (Norma Shearer again, The Grand Hotel, ...Ted Turner is an ass, but I don't know what I'd do without TCM!

My favorite not-quite-as-old movies are Ben Hur and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.

Can anyone tell me the name of the movie that had Betty Davis as the bitch sister of Olivia DeHavilland. Davis ran off with her sister's husband (Dennis Morgan) and drove him to suicide? I can't remember the name of that flick to save my life....

John Woo wanted a much more cerebral ending for Face/Off where the viewer wouldn't know whether it was the good guy or bad guy that survived. It was the studio that forced the pap ending.
