What's your favourite film of all time?

....just remembered I really like Diva, too!

[Swingin' Ryan]

Working in a cinema this question tends to come up about every twenty minutes. My stock 'top five' is generally.....

1. Amelie - Just absolute perfection, makes the world seem a better place.

2. Rushmore - Any of Wes Anderson's films could be on this list, but this is the one I consider his masterpiece to date. Max Fischer is one of the greatest film characters ever.

3. Taxi Driver - I don't think there's any film that immerses you more in it's 'world' and I don't know why. I always feel like I'm 'in it' as opposed to 'watching it' and I don't know what particular trick of cinematography does that. Genius.

4. Ghost World - Enid Coleslaw is my hero.

5. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - Manages to be ultra-realistic and ultra-surreal at the same time. Jim Carrey succesfully smashes every typecast he's created in his career and comes out as a genuinely incredible naturalistic actor.

Honorable mentions - A Bout Du Souffle, A Very Long Engagement, You, Me and Everyone We Know, The Warriors, Spinal Tap, The Shining and everything by Wes Anderson ever.

Big yes to Amelie. I absolutely adore that film.

The original Star Wars Trilogy is the closest thing I have to religion.

Fav non-Star Wars...hmm, Fight Club, X-Men 2, most Wes Anderson...
