  2. We do love our lists, don't we???

    Back in June through July of 2008 on this blog I listed my 100 fave films and in August 2008 I narrowed it down to a definitive statement of my top 10 - stating at the time that such a list was an exercise in futility and would probably change an hour from now. This is true because since 2008 I've seen a ton of movies; many of which are now my favourites. But here's what I said in August 2008:

    1. L'Eclisse
    2. Winter Light
    3. Casablanca
    4. It's A Gift
    5. The Maltese Falcon
    6. Holiday
    7. Long Day's Journey Into Night
    8. A Canterbury Tale
    9. Rear Window
    10. Trouble In Paradise

    And stay tuned to this blog because this topic is turning into something of a series. . .shortly I'll have even more movie stars and their favourite films...
