    A difficult one, because my film viewing depends on my mood, but I have always loved the Blues Brothers

    I'm surprized at the list of favorite movies. No one besides myself has mentioned, "Gone With the Wind." Has anyone here seen the movie?

    Of course I'm half way as old as the hills, maybe that movie is too far back for anyone to know anything about it.

    Well McKay. I liked the book "Gone With the Wind". When I saw the movie I liked it, but not as much as the book.

    My favorites are:

    Working Girl Anne of Green Gables/Anne of Avon Lea Ghost Sweet Home Alabama Shawshank Redemption Dave Spies Like us The Notebook Anna and the King Tootsie Mrs. Doubtfire

    Actually I just realized you asked for your favorite movie of all time - I just don't have 1 movie, sorry.

    ...and how could I miss: "The Color Purple" and "Training Day"

    I didn't like "Gone with the wind"; as Rhett put it "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." "Cause I don't know nuffin 'bout birffin babies!"
