Hmm, a quick point and click reveals a certain clumping of time periods... Seems like you folks don't much like films made between 1960 and 1999. =)

Sadly, I think I've seen about 5% of these movies.
Also, no 'How to Train Your Dragon"? I would definitely watch that one several times (but maybe I don't have very refined tastes, as my 5% number would suggest).
Thank you, thank you for introducing me to this world of great movies! My family has had so much fun since October when I first watched Our Mutual Friend with you and Stacey discovering great movies together. I LOVED North and South, Little Dorrit, and Bleak House. Those three are definite favorites. Daniel Deronda was also excellent. I am happy to have suggestions for the 40s. We haven't watched any of those. You guys are the best. Thanks for being who you are. I love you!
ReplyDeleteYou've been crazy busy! Wow, what a great tribute to Derek...still remember those "dreamy" letters he sent you. Of course he didn't date - he spent all his time writing your those masterpieces ;) Also, why didn't Indiana Jones make the list - the only one of my top three not on the list.
ReplyDeleteThere are some on the list that I've never seen! I'll have to look them up when we're in the US this summer.
ReplyDeleteLITTLE DORRIT 2008 is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI've seen a lot of these movies and have to agree. Most of them I've seen, I've seen with you! :)
ReplyDeleteThere are a few of these films I haven't seen, and I few I would throw off the list.For a start you have the wrong 39 steps, and I don't know about Bing Crosby as a priest...
