Zan - Red Dawn????
hehe its not one of my favs for its artistic cenematic value. Growing up there were 4 of us in our little group, it was tradition for us whenever we went on a road trip to watch Red Dawn (our friends mom had a tv and a vcr in the minivan which was really rare in the early 90s) so now when I watch Red Dawn it always brings back good memories and happier times I forgot to put "What Dreams May Come" on my list too

Take care,
John Doucette

Either middle age does something to the memory, (mine), or you guys are all movie buffs, because I could only recall a few movies at first.  Now that I have read your posts, I am recalling more of them, though I am basically only mentioning movies that I have and could watch many times...So, I will add to my other posts: 'Dr. Zhivago' 'The Wizard of Oz' 'Correlli's Mandolin' 'Jesus of Nazareth' 'The Producers' (the most recent version/I was fortunate to have seen the Broadway play for one of my anniversaries, and I have to say that the movie was just as good and hilarious as the play) There are some people, like my daughter, that will never get tired of watching movies over and over again. As you can see, I only do that with a very few movies. Are all the movies all of you listed, movies which you watch often, or just movies you recall as being your favorites?  Alice

Rocky Casablanca Lord of the Rings Glory Roots Daughters of the Dust Butterfly Effect Pedro Almodovar flicks- I know, super controversial, but much deeper than he seems. Traffic Matrix
Tons of foreign and independent films whose titles escape me now but I'll record them as I remember them.
