    Frida. Although Diego Rivera is my favorite artist (tied with Titian), I really love the story of Kahlo and it's one of the most well done art movies I've ever seen. A lot of them take it too far into the abstract or the pacing is so slow to keep it realistic you want to fall asleep. This one balances beauty, truth, entertainment, and emotion perfectly. In my opinion.

    Snatch, I can watch it a million times!

    I just love the way it was filmed.
    Same here. I laugh through the whole movie. The soundtrack is great, too.

    Also love:

    Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
    Amelie
    Life is Beautiful
    Blue (Three Colors Trilogy)

    The list goes on, but those are definitely in my Top 10. Please don't make me pick an all-time fave! :ohwell:

    For me, it's down to 2, both Mel Brooks classics: Blazzing Saddles and Young Frankenstein. Leaning towards Blazing Saddles for one reason: it is the one movie that you simply could not remake. The screams of outrage of the excessively sensitive PC crowd would prevent it. That and where could you ever get a Gene Wilder, Harvey Korman, Madeline Kahn and Alex Karras?

    Pardon me, while I whip this out.
