What are your 5 favorite movies?

Oh gosh.. this will be difficult. I'll just do my five favorite movies today.


8 1/2- Fellini
Rushmore-Wes Anderson
City of Lost children- Jean Pierre Jeunet
Citizen Kane- Welles
Day of Wrath - Dreyer

Phonebooth was surprisingly scary and got me hooked in a few minutes.


World's Fastest Indian
School of Rock
Kenny
Naked Gun (any one of them)

and I think that if I watched Wayne's World, Animal House and Easy Rider, they'd make the list, look really good.

And I'm curious about Moulin Rouge (the 2001 film not the older one) partly though because one of my friends says its her favourite and we think pretty similar
 
A baker's dozen more, for good measure:

  1. Goodfellas
  2. Le Fabuleux destin d'Am
 
In no particular order:

Stand By Me
Tombstone
Labyrinth
Terminator 2
All Clint Eastwood movies, except "Every Which Way But Loose" & "Any Which Way You Can"
Dead Poets Society
Pulp Fiction
Shawshank Redemption
A Bronx Tale
Goodfellas
Deliverance
Young Guns 2
Swing Kids

OK - that's my baker's dozen. I cheated with Clint, I know. Tehre are soooo many more that I could put on here.
 
Fight Club
The Big Lebowski
The Man Who Wasn't There
Burn After Reading
Little Miss Sunshine
Delirious
