MY CINEMA LIST










"I think cinema, movies, and magic
 have always been closely associated.
 The very earliest people who made film
 were magicians."

~Francis Ford Coppola

I am not a [huge] television watcher,
but I do love a good movie...
pure magic.

I sat down and came up with a list
of my [top] ten movies to watch at
least once in a life time ...if not
a dozen [or more].

[This list does not contain holiday
 movies...that's another list for
 another time.].

1.:: GONE WITH THE WIND
2.:: THE PHILADELPHIA STORY
3.::ARSENIC AND OLD LACE
4.:: CASABLANCA
5:: YOURS,MINE AND OURS
6.:: CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF
7:: LOST HORIZON
8:: THE WIZARD OF OZ
9:: HARVEY
10.:: SABRINA 

What would be on your list?

    Arsenic and Old Lace! Aaaahhhh! My mother introduced us (my sister and I) to that movie when we were kids. I couldn't have been older than 8. It's been a favorite ever since. I still need to find a copy of it to share with my husband and oldest son, though. It always pleases me to hear that other people like that movie, too. (:

    I do love Arsenic and Old Lace. Hmm a list. Now I would really have to think on that one! You are so right, a holiday movie list should be separate and I think I would need another list for animated movies!

    I've never heard of Arsenic and Old Lace. I must keep an eye out for it now.

    You're a classic movie fan. I love Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Also just re-watched Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf?-classic Elizabeth Taylor.
    My favorites list would probably be mostly horror movies-I always watch them when Greg is out of town.

    Ooo, fun! Let's see:

    *Much Ado About Nothing (Emma Thompson & Kenneth Branagh version)
    *Sense & Sensibility (Emma Thompson, again)
    *Out of Africa (young Robert Redford - swoon!)
    *Baby Boom (silly, but still I love it)
    *Everything Audrey Hepburn, including the 1989 _Always_ in which she had a small, but appropriate role as an angel)
    *Ferris Bueller's Day Off (since it would seem I haven't watched many movies since the 80's!)

    Thanks! That was so fun :-)

    Give me a minute, I'm thinking...

    My Fair Lady
    The Sound Of Music
    Ever After
    Seven Brides For Seven Brothers
    Dreamer
    Bella
    Gone With The Wind
    Love Comes Soft
    Finding Neverland
    Pride and prejudice (actually all of Jane
    Austin)
    Meet Me In St. Louis
    Little Women...

    Definitely not comprehensive but a nice sampling!

    Blessings, Debbie

    lost in translation
    marie antoinette
    howls moving castle
    manhattan
    singing in the rain

    Looking at your list, I'm feeling like my choices are really contemporary.... Hmmm.... I think I need to watch a few older movies!
