This may fall into the category of "exploiting other people," since I am currently considering another raid on Amazon DVDs.

But what are your favorite movies?

Tradition says I should go first, I guess.
1. You Are Not Alone (Denmark)
2. Pixote (Brazil)
3. Dosti (India)
4. The Lovers of Teruel (French?)
5. White Squall (Hollywood)
6. Total Eclipse (Europe)
7. Maurice (England)
8. Babette's Feast (Europe)
9. Beautiful Thing (England)
10. The Love of Siam (Thai)

Gosh, Henry, you could have had one thread per category or nationality.

My favourite Thai film is "Tears of the Black Tiger" but I have a strange sense of humour.

Kurosawa's "Ran" is something I've watched more than once.

I found "Beautiful Thing" dire, not a patch on Isaac Julien's "Young Soul Rebels"

your just an old fag Henry and your list proves it.

my favourites in order are :

King Kong (the original)

King Kong (the re-make)

King Kong (the Peter Jackson version)

The Sound of Music (mainly because I met one of the actors who played a von Trapp boy and I fell in love with him )
