    1. A Hard Days Night - very under-estimated comedy
    2. Harvey - Jimmy Stewart at his most masterful
    3. The 1951 version of Scrooge with Alistair Sim - Every Christmas Eve growing up
    4. Network - brilliantly written and prophetic
    5. Monty Python and the Holy Grail - no explanation needed. it turned me into a newt!

    I'm a huge Jimmy Stewart fan as well

    During my theater career he was, hands down, my biggest influence. I still think he's the greatest, most honest actor that Hollywood ever produced.
