Overall favorite: Shawshank Redemption
Watched the most times: Notting Hill and Coming to America
I’m not really a movie watcher, but at the moment I’d say Punch Drunk Love, Onward, Dune, 5th Element, and Tombstone. Oh! People Vs Larry Flynt.
One older one: Disneys Atlantis A newer one: Ready Player One
For me, it's Poor Things. I watched it three times in a row, when it came out. First of all, it's a perfectly executed movie for me, the style, the acting, the storytelling, Emma Stone. What makes it special for me, is that it embodies everything I like about my sexuality and I hope that humanity is heading in that direction of norm-breaking freedom of leading your life. Yorgos Lanthimos has a way of transporting a fresh view on possible paths for society.
it's such a beautiful day
Perfect animated film Makes me feel things
The Bagdad Café. It's not exciting, or romantic, or tragic, or even that funny. But it's beautiful. God I love that film. It seriously has some of the best acting, directing, and writing I've ever witnessed. Second would probably be Casablanca/Lawrence of Arabia/Pulp Fiction/Eight and a Half/......
Edit: also black cat white cat Edit: Pane e Tulipani Edit: Buster Keaton's The Cameraman
yellow submarine (1968?)
I loved having the movie run in the background at parties. That sounds like an insult but tuning into a scene every now and again while blazed is a wonderful experience I do enjoy watching it properly from time to time too.
I have two that flip for my favorite depending on my mood at any given time: "There Will Be Blood" and "Blade Runner 2049". They are both kinda slow and require attention to really appreciate, so probably my favorite movie to turn my brain off and have fun is "Mad Max: Fury Road".
Angel's Egg
My all time favourite is god bless america, it's kind of relatable
