Favorites of All Time

I love hearing what people think of films. My favorite morning radio program posed an interesting movie question, and I'd like to put it out there to my friends (thanks K). Has anything you've seen recently made it on to your all time favorite movie list? I posted my Top 10 movie list at the beginning of this blog back in November. The only "recent" films on that list were Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind and Lost in Translation (sadly displacing My Cousin Vinny and Shawshank Redemption). The most recent film I've seen that comes close to the Top 10, but is number 11 right now, is The Upside of Anger.

As of this date my all time favorite list approaches 50 films, but a little less than half were made in the last 5 years. Kind of interesting to me. I'd love to hear your all time favorite movie(s) and what recent film you've seen that has made it to the top!! Response can be in comment or e-mail ... look forward to it!

Hi Linda, this is great, gives me an idea on whether this is my type of movie, though it's difficult when Lauren, Marc and Tom want to see all different ones, and I normally go with one of thier choices. I'll remind Marc to check your sight, he'll love it!!

In answer to the question of favorite movies: "The Year of Living Dangerously" although Mel Gibson is not my favorite!

Thanks for reminding me of that one, Fred. I saw it so long ago and remember being so impressed w/ Linda Hunt. Have to revisit that one!
