It would really have to depend on my mood but I could pretty much always watch:

In the Company of Wolves
Alice in Wonderland (any version)
Gothic

I know, it's three not one.

Btw, my real favourite movies are Harold & Maude, Rushmore, Brazil, Jaws, A Touch Of Evil, Night Of The Hunter and Harvey.
Actually maybe It's A Wonderful Life too.

Okay. Why didn't you expcet them?

And honestly, The Working Girl is an awful movie, I just love it because it represents everything that was ridiculous about the eighties and early nineties. The good times I missed out on.

Music of the Heart is just amazing though. I love me some Meryl Streep.

Working Girl is great! Funny, smart, brilliant comic performances. I'm old enough to have seen it in the cinema when it first came out too.

I guess I didn't expect those choices from you because they are the sort of movies my mum would cite as her faves. I think when I was your age my favourites were angsty teen stuff like Heathers, Pump Up The Volume (I even had the soundtrack!) and The River's Edge.

Lucky you! My favorite line is when Sigourney Weaver is talking about Jack proposing, and she's listening reasons, the last of which is: "I am, after all...Me. Gets me every time!

I don't know. Teen movies these day's suck. I suppose American Pie is to us what, hm, Star Wars or Sixteen Candles was to you. And when I think "great movie," American Pie doesn't come to mind.

Many of my favourite films have an alarming tendency to be remade really really badly







But hopefully not all will end up that way

When I was a teen, my favorite movies were of the French poetic-realist school: Renoir's "Les Bas-Fonds" & "Nana" & the Carné-Prévert "Le Jour Se Lève" & "Drôle de Drame." But as an adult, you must put away childish things, so I outgrew those films & moved on in my early 20s to the Technicolor Bavarian snickerdoodles of Powell & Pressburger: "The Tales of Hoffmann," "Black Narcissus" & "The Life & Death of Colonel Blimp."

Now in my rapidly advancing twilight, I prefer the tense, embalmed mise en scène of Douglas Sirk: "All That Heaven Allows," "Written on the Wind" & "Magnificent Obsession."

Love this movie. Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman in the same movie? Sheer perfection. If only they worked Meryl Streep and Anthony Hopkins in there too.
