Ok, this may have nothing at all to do with PS, but it can be argued it does, but in any case, we are all one big family, bygones are bygones.
Whats your top 3 all time movies?

The reason i ask, cos if this thread catches on, someone is going to throw up a movie, i have long forgotten about, but always wanted to see and the same for everyone else, which could be beneficial to those whom are recovering from PS.

So here are my 3

The Searchers
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Lost in Translation

Harvey (Jimmy Stewart movie) All time favorite movie
What Dreams May Come (Robin Williams Movie)
The Story of Us (Michelle Pfeiffer movie)

But, my favorite movies are tied to periods in my life when I saw them so I don't know that anyone else would like them nearly as much as I do.

Harvey--remember watching it as a teenager on TV and with my son when he was young--both happy times in my life
What Dreams May Come--watched during a happy time in my life
The Story of Us--watched during a traumatic divorce

This sounds fun. For holiday viewing, I loved Elf with Will Ferrell. I have watched the first Godfather movie too many times to count. The third is a tie between Mystic River and Shawshank Redemption. Just thinking about it brings to mind so many other good ones though!! What was the one with Hilary Swank, she was a boxer? That was good too. Geez, looking at my choices, I guess I must not be into the happy ending type flicks!

Leave it to you to love the most disturbing movie. I appreciated it, but it was very disturbing....and it takes A LOT to disturb me. well done movie nonetheless.

The scene when the girls first attack Pauline's mother was... unsettling. After being struck, Pauline's mother lets out the most terrifying cry I have ever heard in a movie.
