What is your favourite film and why

[GRUMPY PIRATE]

thats a tough question, its really a toss-up on my favorite..

either:

Plan 9 From outer space

or

Manos, hands of fate


both explore the pathos of human existence when compared to the futility of striving for a perfect society.

[disneyismyname]

Being a 23 year old female...I have an odd list of favorite movies:
*Flesh and the Devil --A silent movie with Greta Garbo. The whole movie is filled with emotion.
*Queen Christina -- My favorite Garbo talkie. Love her and John Gilbert's chemistry. Its amazing.
*Pride and Prejudice --Each one! Greer Garson & Laurence Olivier/ Jennifer Euhle & Colin Firth/ Keira Knightley & Matthew McFadyen
*The Little Mermaid -- My Favorite Disney movie...still know the whole movie word for word!

Mine is Grease, why - it was the first movie my mom took me too as a kid (7 or 8 - clearly I didn't really get it at that age) and to this day, I love John Travolta

I wish I could say some wonderful cinematic masterpiece but ahhhh not really

Oh my!!!

I can whittle my favorites down to five (today at least ):

Steel Magnolias because of the humor and love in the movie
Fiddler on the Roof because of the music and Tevye
The Philadelphia Story because it's this week's favorite Cary Grant movie
Halloween because I'm a horror movie buff & this one is the best (The original version of The Haunting comes close though.)
Star Wars because it's just plain good fun
