Ok here are my top 10 favorite movies of all time... Well, I've actually just gotten to 6...
1- A Bronx Tale 1993 - directed by and starring Robert Dinero. Great coming of age tale taking place in NYC in the 1960's. Great story, great acting, great sound track, great wiseguys!
2- The Sound of Music 1965 - I always want to start out thinking that this is a sappy movie, but it really isn't. Great love story and not just between Julie and Christopher, but also about the love of their home and their country.
3- American History X 1998 - intense, not for the faint of heart! Edward Norton has some great monologues in so many of his movies- my favorite in this one was the family dinner scene with Elliot Gould.
4- The Godfather 1972 - how could you not include the Godfather and it's cavalcade of stars in a top 10 list. Nuff said!
5- Jaws 1975 - yes, I'm a sucker for shark movies, but Jaws is actually done really well and not in a bad way... As a matter of fact, if it were on right now, if be watching it - but it's not. Oddly, it seems to be on every Thanksgiving. How is Thanksgiving related to sharks?!
6- Bell, Book, and Candle 1958 - another movie with a cavalcade of stars - Jimmy Stewart, Jack Lemmon, Ernie Kovacs, Elsa Lancaster, Hermione Gingold, and Kim Novak as a hip beatnik witch. takes place in NYC where they go to a cool underground club, called The Zodiac, where the Brothers Candoli play a mean rendition of Stormy Weather.
I still need 4 more movies, but I'm just not ready to commit yet. In the meantime, here are some other movies that I like a lot:
Rounders
Sharknado - good in a really bad way - or is that bad in a really good way
Jurassic park
Fight Club
My Cousin Vinny
Tombstone
Silverado
Pulp Fiction
West Side Story
Gone With the Wind
Frequency
These are all movies that I've seen way more than once. Future postings will include a comedy list, more obscure and interesting movies, scary movies, b-movies, etc.
