Paulie Mississippi Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Shawshank is a great one too. Almost hard to believe it's from a Stephen King story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hey Marvin. I loved Hitchcocks "Birds". We used to have competitions to see who spot him first in his own movies.Muzza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollies65 Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share Posted May 9, 2007 West Side Story was a movie I just loved a a kid. My mom had the soundtrack album...It was red and black...I bet others here can still picture it in their heads. I liked Close Encounters way more than E.T.

JuliaAllByMyself Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I love comedies or ‘old times’ films. My all time favourite film is the wonderful b/w Brief Encounter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I liked Close Encounters but I loved ET. Eliot's innocence and sweetness just got to me, as well as those qualities in ET himself. I also like to remember Drew Barrymore as the way she portrayed Gertie. I forgot to include ET in my list of favorites. It's definitely up there. After seeing the movie, I read Melissa Matthieson's book. I'll just never forget the last shot of Eliot, the wonder and innocence on Henry Thomas' face, the look in his eyes... I will always love it. --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
