A few favorites-

V is for Vendetta- striking how close fiction can be to truth's edge

The Empire Strikes Back- 8 year old KNJ learns the good guys don't always win and also how horrific paternity reveals can be long before Maury Povich made it a money maker

The Princess Bride- One of the great movies of the 80s

Cloud Atlas- it just resonated with me in every way it didn't for those who panned it

All time favourite:
The Italian Job (original, not atrocious remake)

4 of many I will watch any time:
Heaven Can Wait (1978)
Star Wars (original trilogy as a marathon cheat)
Wargames
Trading Places.

Can you guess when I grew up?

Dave.

It's hard to pick only 5 favourites. Some movies I love just because of the costumes or the sets and not for any other reason.

Out of Africa
Gandhi
Dr Zhivago
Moulin Rouge
The Thomas Crown Affair (Steve McQueen & Faye Dunaway one)
The Remains of the Day
Big Wednesday
Pearl Harbor
Rosemary's Baby *spooky but incredibly made.

I could go on, but that's more than 5 already.
