it's up now!

Ireneparalegal · 03-22-2007, 09:24 PM

Okay, thanx. Now, let me see...

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. I love this movie. They always show it on television at Easter. I never get tired of this movie. Last year they made the mistake of "remaking" it...really what they did was revamp it for the 21st century audience. I HATED IT. Some movies are best left alone, no remakes, no editing, nothing. This movie just fascinates me as it did when I was a young girl.

Mary Poppins followed closely by Singing in the Rain.

Both movies have a good old time-feel, and good feel-good simplicity. But I didn't see Singing in the Rain until I was in my late teens. I grew up with Mary Poppins. So the film has more of a nostalgic feel.

Everything about it brings a smile to my face. From the jolly music to the innocent adventures. Bert's freelance lifestyle has always been very romantic to me.

From this list I pick The Wizard Of Oz.

Psycho is a favorite of mine so I selected other. I also like The Wizard of Oz.

catlover79 · 03-23-2007, 03:06 PM

This is one of my all time favorites, from 1965: A Patch of Blue, starring Sidney Poitier, Shelley Winters and Elizabeth Hartman.

This film is beautiful in every way. I would recommend it to anyone!!

RoryGilmore · 03-23-2007, 03:12 PM

Wizard Of Oz but Gone With the Wind was a very close second.
