3 Favorite Movies

Yes, it was based on the book which I have never read.
The film is old - it starred Gary Cooper.
I liked it, I certainly did. I was about fifteen when I saw it and can't remember much of it now other than the architecture but...

...when I think of my favourite movies The Fountainhead, despite my memory, is always one of the first to surface in my mind; along with Last Year in Marienbad (1961).


Was it that Greta Garbo acted as Dominque? The book was disturbingly good, to me, at least.
 
Three of my favourite movies must be Pirates of the Caribbean -because it's fantastic and realistically surrealistic, Disco Pigs -because it is beautiful, and the Alladin cartoon movies, especially the first one which I have loved since I was teeny tiny, if you look away from Alladins some naive and stupid comments and some of the retarded things that happens (it is, in fact, a childrens movie) then you will see that it is indeed very brilliant and funny and magical and fantastic.
But my ultimate favourite movie ever is Himmelfall. It's about a few patients in a mental hospital. The most magic moment of the entire movie is when the tennis ball goes thorugh the wall. I mean through it, and everything is in harmony and it doesn't matter if a gigantic rock lands on your head. (Except that you would probably die if it did, though)
 
It's hard enough to choose a top ten let alone a top three but at the moment I would probably say

The Fisher KIng
Grosse Pointe Blank
The Third Man

OH and ricky Five Easy Pieces stars Jack Nicholson and is pretty damn fantastic.
 
It's madness, but I'll try anyway. Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain and err... Romance with a Double Bass? No, I don't think I can do it after all.
