Ex Machina

Betty Blue

The Double Life of Veronique

Mona Lisa

Psycho

Don't Look Now

Elizabeth

The Three Colours Trilogy

Paris, Texas

Five Easy Pieces

Doctor Zhivago

Picnic at Hanging Rock

Breakfast at Tiffany's

  • Life of Brian is one of my favourites, my sons and I can turn the sound off and mimic the characters and lines verbatim. George Harrison had to mortgage his house to fund the film, if it had flopped he would have lost his entire wealth of £4M. In the 70’s that was big money, it’s still bigger than anything I’m likely to ever see!  My R.E teacher stood outside the local cinema with a placard, “ It’s a sin to go in.”

  • I don't watch a ton of films, but I guess my top 5 would be maybe

    This Is The End

    Lord of the Rings (Fellowship if just picking one)

    Life of Brian

    The Little Mermaid (original)

    Dodgeball

  • I've only seen the first X Men film, always intended to watch them all but somehow haven't gotten round to it yet.

    2. All Star Trek films.
    3. The Shawshank Redemption.

    5. Quadrophenia 
    6. Good Will Hunting 
    7. Moonraker.
    8. Skyfall.
    9. X Men.
    10. Taken Trilogy 
    11. The Railway Children. original
    12. Broken Arrow.
    13. Phenomenon.
    14. Last Night in Soho.
