So you like HODS?
Did Barnabas die at the end or pretend to die and fly off as a bat? It’s been a debate for decades (not to mention that, at the time, it could have meant ‘sequel’)
extra list :
11. Django Unchained (2012) ~ for the great soundtracks
12. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007) ~ the costume and the sets are brilliant!
13. Heartbreak Ridge (1986) ~ Highway: We’re Marines, sir. We’re paid to adapt, to improvise.

It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World (1963) Spencer Tracy and all-star cast

FAVORITE DRAMA:
**Field of Dreams (1989) Kevin Costner, Amy Madigan, James Earl Jones, Burt Lancaster **
Thanks Imdb for filling in the missing blanks.
Favorite movies are ones I could watch over and over again and not get tired of them. None of them are deep thinkers.
In no particular order:
Ben Hur (1959)
War of the Worlds (1953)
Scarecrow of Romney March (1963 Disney 3-parter also released as a movie)
Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
Dracula (1931)
LOL
Looks like my list is pretty popular.
In case there are any other fans of The Big Lebowski, a friend told me about a TBL podcast called Gutterballs. Each episode covers one minute of the movie. I’m only a couple of episodes in. Parts of it are interesting, parts get a little dry. If nothing else, it reminded me that it’s time for a viewing of TBL . . . and a White Russian.
Maybe not a movie, but it is still one of the best.
