If you had to pick one all-time favorite movie...

Beverly Hills Cop- I never tire of that stupid movie. It is something that I watch when I am in a "down" mood. It always cheers me up!

@Agent1741,

Mine is Les Miserables.
Had to read this in grade school, and it's the one novel that has stuck with me throughout my life. When my sister, niece and I visited Washington DC, it was playing at Lincoln Center. However, when I asked our tour director if tickets were available, we were told it was sold out. Just for the heck of it, I went to the ticket booth and asked if they had 3 tickets for the show. It just so happened that somebody just turned in 3 tickets. We had very good seats, and really enjoyed the show.

I think maybe Milagro Bean field War. True to the book, and the characters were perfect.

@JPB,

In 1968, I went to see Ulysses. I had a seat behind an elderly couple. The man began to frown the moment the intro music started. As soon as they realized that Odysseus would not be making an appearance in the film, they got up and left.

We took the girls to all the 'Lord of the Rings' movies on three consecutive New Years Eves. An 8:00 start got us out at 11:40(ish) which gave us time to jump in the car, get home in time for a toast, and send everyone to bed.

Not too far into 'The Two Towers' (the second one) an older couple stood up, walked out, and left no doubt whatsoever that they wouldn't be back for episode three. I've never seen anyone make a display of leaving a movie before (not that you said you've done that) but it was very memorable.

Edgar you have likely seen this already, if not you might enjoy watching it.

That's right, it's Finnegan's Snake.

I'm so sorry.

It would probably be Hell Drivers!

Kind of cool to see young Sean Connery, young Patrick McGoohan, and young David McCallum all in the same movie.

I like anything with Ben Kingsley in it.

@chai2,

Death and the Maiden with Kingsley and Sigourney Weaver was outstanding.

@InfraBlue,

I also like, "The Best Years of Our Lives," with Dana Andrews. Might be, because I was in the US Air Force for four years, and stationed in Morocco for one year. That's when my passion for world travel was born. (*Casablanca with Humphrey Bogart is another favorite) Saw the Rick's cafe sign at Warner Bros tour.

@Frank Apisa,

Never saw Dr. Strangelove. Did not like Godfather I. It seemed that Brando had a mouth full of bubble gum. Very distracting. I thought that Godfather II was a masterpiece.
