On lighter side…again.
There are some movies that I can watch over, and over again…though I’ve seen them ten times before. Most pictures that I’ve seen once, have no interest in a second time round. But there are a few that simply captivate, whether it be the acting, the plot, the settings or the story line. I have probably watched The Godfather a dozen times, same with the sequel. When I’m surfing my remote and I see Titanic on the channel, the surf comes to a halt. Love that movie.
Coming up with my ten greatest all-time movies was simply too daunting a task, so many eras, so many genres, comedy, action, drama, musical…it was impossible to narrow to ten. But I can offer an opinion on the twenty greatest movies of all time. (Within my scope of reference) These are the pictures I will watch again, and again, like a brain-dead couch potato. (Which can feel pretty good sometimes)
Here’s my top twenty:
The Godfather
The Godfather II
Schindler’s List
One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest
The Shawshank Redemption
Titanic
Casablanca
Some Like It Hot
Raging Bull
The Deer Hunter
Sophie’s Choice
Million Dollar Baby
Jaws
Scent of A Woman
Singin In The Rain
Dances With Wolves
Goodfellas
The Wizard of Oz
The Exorcist
Rocky
Planet of the Apes
