Your most classic film of all time?

[Cedric Farthsbottom III]

Got to be Lord of the Rings for me.:lol:

[landmarker]

For me, it has to be 'The Shawshank Redemption'
LOTR worked wonders for my insomnia, but to each their own, I say.

[Billy Boy]

[JimH]

"San Demetrio - London"

[Alice in Blunderland]

For me, it has to be 'The Shawshank Redemption'
.
I also liked this film.My all time favourite is Top Gun .Tom can take my breath away any day.

[Tugmistress]

a film i can sit and watch time and again is 'dam busters' and yes i am wierd :Razz

[kwbrown111]

got to be Omen

[Bingobabe]

Im a big film fanatic so it,s hard to pick one in paticular really enjoyed the green mile, the hurricane excellent film and brillant song bob dylan,pirates of the carribean (sorry cant spell) these are the top three i think.:Razz

[doyle]

Has to be The Patriot - Mel Gibson, and Sleeping With The Enemy - Julia Roberts

[Chillie]

In the old one's must be Whisky Galore, The Wicker Man, and the new one's Green Mile, Shawshank Redemption, Mississippi Burning, and Enemy of the State. I think Gene Hackman is a brill actor,well I suppose they all are.:Razz

[dunderheed]

i too can't just pick one so here's my categories and favourites-

comedy-happy gilmour

musical-tie between evita,rocky horror picture show and tommy

based on a true story-goodfellas and a sense of freedom (the jimmy boyle story)

thriller- cape fear

animated-valiant

costume drama-she wore a yellow ribbon

horror- hmm, now this is a hard choice i'll settle for wrong turn.

scottish based movie- restless natives (again a tough choice with both gregorys girl films and trainspotting being up there too)

thats enough for now.

[DrSzin]

http://ia.imdb.com/media/imdb/01/I/84/36/94m.jpg (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082477/posters)Watched it over and over.Yeah, me too. It's even better when you know the locations and one of the cast - my wife's brother's wife's sister was in it.

I first saw it in an arthouse movie theatre in Southern California that showed "foreign" movies. And it was a foreign movie to the natives. We were often in fits of laughter whilst the rest of the place sat in bemused silence.

But I preferred "Local Hero". :o

[angela5]

I have never seen the film 'local hero':o
http://www.geo.ed.ac.uk/home/scotland/tales/phonebox.gif
but apparently fans are still ringing this Pennan Phone box from around the world, unaware of the fact that it is a fraud. The phone box, so crutial in the movie, was a fabrication.

[DrSzin]

Yes, the phone box was a fake, but Ben's beach was real (http://www.scotlandthemovie.com/movies/morarhero.html), and it's well worth a visit.

[willowbankbear]

The Godfather or Goodfellas. Its too close to call

[squidge]

I have lots

i like
to kill a mocking bird
12 angry men
A taste of honey - brilliant piece of social history - look at the docks and the stereortypical homosexual character who makes curtains and things. Its an amazing piece of film
The quiet man - great fun and watchable film

Pulp fiction and Reservoir Dogs
The Green Mile
Gregory's girl

[pultneytooner]

One flew over the cuckoo's nest or southern comfort.:D

[erli]

Ach you beat me to it pulteneytooner. One Flew Over the Cukoos Nest is a favourite of mine too.
My MOST favourite though is Raging Bull.

[plutonio]

mines would be Whistle Down the Wind an old black and white but very good.

[krieve]

Mines would have to be....

In that order.

[Sporran]

I have a lot of fave movies, but here are just some, not in any order of preference.

Gone With The Wind- I never seem to tire of it.

Titanic - The Kate Winslet version as well as a "made for TV" one which came out the year before. George C Scott potrayed the captain of the doomed ship. Catherine-Zeta Jones and dishy Peter Gallagher also starred.

Somewhere in Time - Romance and time travel at its best, with Christopher Reeves and Jane Seymour.

Elizabeth - Historical drama with Cate Blanchett, Geoffrey Rush and Joseph Fiennes. The best movie I have ever seen about Queen Elizabeth I. Cate was brilliant in the leading role!

GI Blues - Starring Elvis Presley and Juliet Prowse. It was filmed on location in Germany, and was a nod to Elvis's time in the US Forces over there. I've been to all the places in the film.

Local Hero - of course! :D I was living near Boston when I first saw it, and it made me a bit homesick, I have to admit! I also loved the atmospheric musical score, by Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits.

[obiron]

i like loads of films too but the best has to be star wars (any) lord of the rings and monsters inc. love ma cartoons.

[Bobinovich]

scottish based movie- restless natives (again a tough choice with both gregorys girl films and trainspotting being up there too)

Ma gawd I'd forgotten that cracker - going to get reaquainted very soon 'cos I've now ordered it from dvd.co.uk

Thanx Dunderheed

[Whitewater]

My favourites to date are the Lord of the Rings (trioligy) and the Harry Potter series, never miss them, I always insist that my grandsons ask me to take them.
Over the years there have been so many good films, many of them mentioned here already. I always enjoy a good film, tend to be a western fan I guess.

[Astra]

Mine would have to be green mile ,saw 1 and 2 waiting for 3 . schindler list

The green mile


as i scrolled down saw mine

Stand By Me!

Its a mill!

[landmarker]

Has to be The Patriot - Mel Gibson, and Sleeping With The Enemy - Julia Roberts

The latter was pretty good but YOU SIMPLY CANNOT BE SERIOUS WITH THE FIRST ONE? it was a load of old tosh.
l/m

[landmarker]

Stand by Me was fab!
Went to the 'local hero' phone box a couple of weeks ago and it was a disappointment So was 'the pub' it's been tarted up and just doesn't look northern (ish) Scottish any maire.(forgive the crap accent, I'm Mancunian you know. However, the tide WAS assaulting the sea defences with gusto and I'm glad we visited.

The movie itself is so dear to me. It helped me sidcover Scotland, along with some long deliveries to obscure places like Kishorn, and Shieldaig in the early eighties. I'm eternally grateful.

[landmarker]

It's not a classic by any means but 'Falling Down' with Michael Douglas sums up my predominant exasperative mood. A middle aged man pushed to the extremes. If only reaction were so simple. T'was a 'great' film I think, just sneaks in there in my opinion anyway.
