Favourite Movie
 
My favourite movie is True Romance. If you have not seen it dump it into the top of your netflix/blockbuster que today!!! Everybody and thier mother is in it. Quentin Tarrantino wrote the script...People study this film in film school.

The Blues Brothers.

Directed by John Landis, a cast including John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, John Candy, Carrie Fisher, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Cab Calloway, John Lee Hooker, Lou Marini, Matt Guitar Murphy, Tom Bones Malone, Steve Cropper, Donald Duck Dunn, Alan Rubin. If you don't know all of these names, look them up. Cropper cowrote sitting on the dock with Otis Redding, in the midnight hour with Wilson Pickett, etc. and is considered by many the best living blues guitarist. Apparently the Beatles wanted to come to record Revolver with him but were talked out of it by Epstein.

"Play it, Steve".

Duck often smokes a pipe while playing.

This is the movie film students go to watch when they want a break from studying films and just want a good laugh and to listen to good music.

I first liked it because of the reference to my hometown. Then then I listened to the movie. All-time fave.

Made my girls watch it with me one day and during "Shake Your Tailfeather" they said, "OOH, it's the Cheetah Girl's song...":bh

I used to hear this a lot, resulting in one my nicknames being Goonie.

I think Conan the Barbarian is an amazingly well made movie that is overlooked. If you actually watch the movie (and not the for-tv-edit) you realize how un-campy it is. The set designs are amazing and Basil Poledouris turned in one of the best original scores ever heard. There isn't even that much violence for most of the movie--it isn't nearly as mindless as a lot of people believe. The sequel and all the sword & sandal movies it inspired are nowhere near as good (but Destroyer isn't actually that bad).

Blade Runner's another brilliant movie.

If you like well done action, check out Brotherhood of the Wolf. If nothing else, Monica Belucci gets naked.

I'm partial to a few movies already named (True Romance & Blues Brothers,) but as for absolute favorites... if I had to pick ONE movie, I'd have to say:

Saving Private Ryan
