just to get an idea about whos out there could you make a list of your favourite 3 films!

2.where eagles dare
3.leon

There are so many. But I must say goodfellas and leon are both excellent choices..

Like music these things change over time. same question a few years ago would be different results.. But rght now.

1) Snatch. You have to watch it more than once to get the whole thing. Brilliant film.

2) Con Air. Probably a passing phase but deffo good.

3) Both Terminator films..

There are film stars that can appear in just about anything and make a good film.. Tommy Lee Jones, Morgan Freeman, De Niro and Pacino (Those two made HEAT a fantastic film) and suprising (esp' If you first saw him in Saturday night fever) what a film star John Travolta turned out to be.. made some cracking films..

I'm always impressed with Samual L Jackson's performances, he is a great actor.

hanchorman · 17-04-2003, 18:54

It's a tough choice, but here goes...

Debbie Does Dallas...... oh, you don't mean THAT kind of film?  

OK, seriously.... Goodfellas would definitely be up there, but these are my three.

1) Memento (a film backwards?)
2) The Beyond (Fulci at his very best)
3) The Seventh Seal (Bergman shows the wannabes how to make a great film) Ugh... subtitles?  I wanna watch a film not read it!!
