Its always a tough question, but what I want to know is what is your favourite film & why? If you cant choose one, choose 3.
(I may also work through some of them since im having real trouble with the notion of sleep these days)
Hit me. |

3 is near impossible....but 'gone with the wind', 'goodfellas', and 'crash' (the good one, not the halle berry one!), but now 'the shape of water' is fast coming up as my new favourite.. |

"Blade Runner
Nocturnal Animals
I did love Nocturnal Animals very much.
Love Tom Ford's directing style. "
He made it like everything he does, just dripped it in this lavish, effortlessly cool style |

Baby Driver is creeping up there though. Shame Kevin Spaceys rep will now taint it forever. |

"Shawshank Redemption (Stephen King my favourite author)
Schindlers List (I know dramatized and not 100 % accurate)
Blade Runner (original)"
Schindlers List is unreal but it doesnt make my greats because ive seen it 3 times & it doesnr get any less heartbreaking! Once watched a programmed about the film & its accuracies/inaccuracies & it isnt too far from the truth! Suppose thats what makes it so shocking. |

I'm always a bit unsure of remakes but it looks like a pretty good cast. I look forward to seeing it. |

But if you've seen it 3 times and it still affects You, then surely that's a sign of greatness? |

Absolutely, but I dont think i’ll go back to it again for some time, its almost too good & too sobering |

So many really some that come to mind,
Would be .. The Dambusters, Reach for The sky (The story of douglas bader) Acted by Kenneth more.. Henry v at Agincourt acted by lawrence olivier (Mainly to watch the clip of the english Archers fireing their Arrows on to the Chargeing Nobility of the french knights) Armour or not those arrows often found their mark, in that chargeing scene with the dolphein in his full armour and the hail of arrows comeing down on to them ... Think of this day as st crispins day.

For its times the Dambusters is great, but somehow for me, it got a bit lost it time. Ive said for years Dambusters & Zulu are two great war stories that with modern technology would come alive! |
