I forgot all about this one

Oh Brother Where art thou.

I can't help but get all jiggy when the soggy bottom boys come on.

Mine are:

Shirley valentine - because I wish I could do it

Count of monte cristo - cos it's a great story of love and revenge.

Turner & hooch - makes me cry and laugh every time.

Rocky - just because it's rocky

10 Rillington place - Richard Attenborough amazing

I love movies, cinema, tv, dvd you name it. I've watched some great films that I started out not been bothered about watching but I've ended up really enjoying them.

Some favourites are: The Green Mile, Pearl Harbour, Forrest Gump, Drop Dead Fred. I also really like the one's where you never saw the twist coming, shutter island is a good one for that if anyone's not seen it.

I quite like to watch the film before I read the book then I play the story out in my head as what I saw. Reading the green mile after watching the film was great cos I enjoyed the casting of Tom Hanks/Michael Clarke Duncan/Doug Hutchison/David Morse/Michael Jeter/etc etc. Wouldn't have been the same without them.

... 10 Rillington place - Richard Attenborough amazing ...

Blimey I'd forgotten that. One of the most apparently ordinary but utterly horrifying films. This web site shows the demise of the real house, where the film with Dickie Attenborough, John Hurt et al was shot.

The Day the Earth Stood Still
Stairway to Heaven
Predator
And any Western, especially John Wayne movies...yes I know, no taste!

The Shawshank Redemption for me.

The Shawshank Redemption for me.

I've got Shawshank and the green mile on DVD but I've never watched them.

The Lovely Bones. A film of light and dark - that's how life is - with, if you don't get it, light (as always) triumphing in the end.
The other dimension to the film is survival of the spirit. Some magical and beautiful cinematic depictions of the Other Side.

I hardly ever watch films but when people are talking about what they've seen I can often say I've read the book . Find it fits in better with my lifestyle as can just pick up for a few minutes when I want rather than sitting through a full film in one go and all the extra layers in a book that you can't reflect on screen really fire my imagination. Think some of it due to living somewhere without a cinema until I was 18 so never got into the habit but did have access to libraries and books. Think I average a film at the cinema about once every 3 years and only a couple a year on the small screen.

Read that book too but didn't actually know it was a film.
