This threads probably been done before..
But anyway..
what's your all time favourite film? Something that you would go back and watch again? Even if it's a strange one. My all time favourite is Shawshank redemption.. I know, I know! I've been asked why because everyone else seems to think it's boring but I honestly love it. I'm going on maternity leave soon and know I'll end up wanting to watch films when I'm bored. Hopefully I can look at this thread when I'm struggling for a film to watch! I'll take your word for it that it's a good film!

I always thought Dirty Dancing was the best film I'd ever watched until I saw Shutter Island. I watched it at the cinema and you could of heard a pin drop it was that gripping! Oh what an unpredictable twist...Outstanding movie with Leo de Cap as lead. Anyone else watch it?

Mystic River. Everything about it is just excellent, from the acting to the score. I loved the book, too.

My top ten is partly due to doing Film Studies a level and degree in the 90s, partly fancying the lead actors, partly just because I just love them. It's verrrry 90s heavy. Blush

  1. Brief Encounter
  2. Mildred Pierce
  3. Thelma and Louise
  4. Cape Fear (Scorsese)
  5. Pulp Fiction
  6. Rear Window
  7. Cinema Paradiso

Most recently I watched “a simple favour” on Netflix about a school mum asking another mum for a simple favour - watch it! It’s good. Got Blake lively in it
