This all is for that elusive island but need more:

1. Diabolique (1954) / The Wages of Fear (1953)

Pygmalion (1938) + Dutch version (1937) by Ludwig Berger


Veronika Voss (1982) / Lola (1981) / The Marriage of Maria Braun (1979) (Trilogy)

Journey into Fear (1943) / The Lady from Shanghai  (1947) (need a double bill here)

NOTE #1: Only one movie per slot. No movie series or trilogies and no "ties" where two different movies both share the number one spot. One slot, one movie.

You put together a list of your personal top 25 movies of all time, and post it in this thread.

At some time I personally feel scientific, at another time dramatic.

Or comedic, adventurous, lovestruck, beloved, critical, horrified, erotic, homelike, criminal, action-packed, catastrophic, mysterious, historical, satirical, religious.

Sometimes martial, militant, monumental. Another time funny, fantastic, futuristic. Adolescent, adult, aged.

What, exactly, do you want?

1. Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope (1977)
2. Gone With The Wind (1939)
3. Raiders Of The Lost Ark (1981)

I mean your personal top 25. The movies that for you are the best 25 movies ever made, without considering the movie's impact on film history or how well executed it was in terms of art or style. Just simply your own personal top 25. Your 25 deserted island movies, if you will.

I've added that to the first post now.

01. Hotaru no Haka (1988) (Grave of the Fireflies)
02. Lawrence of Arabia (1962)
03. The Lord of the Rings (2001-03)
04. Watchmen (2009)
05. Jin-Roh (1999)
06. Mononoke Hime (1997) (Princess Mononoke)
07. The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976)
08. Shichinin on Samurai (1954) (The Seven Samurai)
09. Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi (2001) (Spirited Away)
10. The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)
11. Brokeback Mountain (2005)
12. The Count of Monte Cristo (1975)
13. Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
14. Solyaris (1972) (Solaris)
15. The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
16. The Thornbirds (1983)
17. Transformers: The Movie (1986)
18. Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986)
19. Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984)
20. La Belle et la Bete (1946) (Beauty & The Beast)

22. The Incredible Journey (1963)
23. Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead (1990)
24. Rent (2005)
25. Arsenic and Old Lace (1944)

If you don't consider The Thornbirds a movie - drop it, move everything up and insert Alexander (2004) at the end of the list.

If you must consider The Lord of the Rings three movies (though I consider it one, broke into three parts), then leave off the last three on the list and move everything down.

Here's a quick list I threw together.  If you asked again tomorrow, it would probably look different.  But as of now, here's my top 25:

1 Die Hard
2 A Few Good Men
3 Amélie
4 Sling Blade
5 Moulin Rouge
6 Bringing Up Baby
7 It's a Wonderful Life
8 Cinema Paradiso
9 Snatch
10 The Fifth Element
11 Scent of a Woman
12 The Big Red One
13 Das Boot
14 Amadeus
15 The Breakfast Club
16 American History X
17 The Matrix
18 Planet of the Apes
19 The Ox-Bow Incident
20 Ronin
21 American Beauty
22 Pan's Labyrinth
23 The Sixth Sense
24 The Petrified Forest
25 Yankee Doodle Dandy
