Favorite Movie?

Harold & Maude



Hands down, the most beautifully, funny, dark love story ever, with a great soundtrack, and beautiful imagery.

Really? w0w...
I always found Bud Cort kinda creepy. Except maybe in M*A*S*H.

Picking one movie as my favorite is too hard, without a shotgun pointed at my head...

Here goes:

The Big Country

I have lots of favorites, but the one I watch the most would have to be Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.



edit: On the lower left hand corner is says black comedy, drugs for the theme. I dont think there was one black person in this movie..

It's a rather large toss-up between What Dreams May Come, The Princess Bride, The Lord of the Rings (I think of all three movies as one long ass movie), The Indiana Jones Trilogy, Back to the Future Series, and last but not least, the new (live action) Peter Pan.

I just can't decide.

I can't tell if you're joking or not, so if these seems like I am stating the obvious...forgive me!

The term "black comedy" doesn't have anything to do with race, it is to do with the tone of the humor: dark humor, often making fun of death and other such things.

There are so many films. It's hard to choose a favorite.

A great "feel good" film.


Also an excellent film. Not quite "feel good" though.

The Birth of A Nation - I have a special version featuring an interview with D.W. Griffith from 1946 or so. Incredibly moving story wonderfully showcasing friendship and the horror and stupidity of Reconstruction.

The WHOLE Godfather trilogy.

Many people kill on the third movie, and while it definitely wasnt as masterfully done, I like the progression of Michael Corleone's character (played masterfully by Al Pacino) much better than any of the other movies. In the first, he comes into his own, in the second he descends into darkness, in the third, he has his repentance.

Harold & Maude makes me think of There's Something about Mary

HEALY - Huh. I guess I just wish they made them like they used to. You know, something like The Karate Kid...or Harold and Maude.

MARY - Pat, I'm not kidding. I really think it's the greatest--

HEALY - Love story of our time.
