Re: 10 of my favorites

A lot of people always have The Shawshank Redemption film as their favourite film
I wasn’t keen, l found it too harrowing, a waste of somebody’s life and where justice came too late!

Perhaps you can't watch it now because also Patrick Swayze died.

Re: 10 of my favorites

I enjoyed The last Picture Show which I thought was the quintessential American movie.

The trouble with lists is that they change depending on what you remember, the mood you are in, whether you are pissed. So I will restrict my list to one.

The Shawshank Redemption while I enjoyed it at the time didn't make me want to see it again unlike say Casablanca which I have seen dozens of times.

Made well before my arrival on this 'ere planet but, what a great film...I never tire of watching it.

I too had overlooked Dirty Harry films and also my favourite Nam film...Full Metal Jacket.

Can I raise it from top 10 to top 50?
