Dirty Dancing and other old faves!

[_Ju_]

I just finished watching it on fiver for the upteenth time.
I never did get to see this film in the cinema. On the day my friends and I were going, some summer a very very long time ago, I was uncerimoniously run over by two fighting dogs at the bus stop and hurt my knee so badly the walk home, that usually took me 2 minutes took close to half an hour (The truth....I promise you!!!!!). So by the time I saw dirty dancing it was already a few years old. No matter how many times I have seen it, it does not get old or boring. And I would add just two self explanatory words about this film: Patrick Swazye. I suppose it would be one of those "marking-films-of-our-lives" for me.

On the other hand I don't know why, as it's so different from my other golden oldie favorites, such as Dead Poets Society, Roots, Quo Vadis, Thorn Birds, Born Free, Gorillas in the mist and (again strangely), Aliens (the first, of course!)

What eclectic "films-that-marked-me" lists are out there?
