Oh yes, Garinda and Junetta .. all Bette Davies films. 'Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte' remember that one.
Most of the films mentioned here... Shakermaker 'Forest Gump' .. that's when I realised Tom Hanks had more to him than a face like putty .. good innit ?
I love 'Face Off' with Nicholas Cage/John Travolta .. no comments Gayle please, and a light film but very funny is 'Death Becomes Her' Goldie Hawn, hilarious.

Re: What Films Impressed You?
Favourite films - dirty dancing - i loved that film, green mile - me & sis cried at that one, pirates of the carribean - johnny depp how can it miss! But the favourite oldie was my mums favourite as well - The Quiet Man - the fight at the end! You laugh all the way through it mainly because its set in ireland and thats what the people were like!
The first 18 film i saw though after sneaking into the pictures was bachelor party - i was 13 at the time!

Re: What Films Impressed You?
I loved watching Shirley Temple's films when they showed a season of them on Saturday mornings when I was small.
I cried when my Mum told me she was an old lady now and that I couldn't marry her.

Re: What Films Impressed You?
All time favourite? - Some like it hot. Great story, wonderful acting, and that last line - "Nobody's perfect".
Also loved Zulu - another wonderfully acted film, with great locations.
I can watch (and have) The Addams Family and Addams Family values time after time.
Two very underrated films which I found fantastic were: Buona Sera, Mrs Campbell, and My Favourite Year.
I can always weep at Brief Encounter - ahhh.

The thought of Nicholas Cage always gets me that way.
