[Jadzia]

There are several films which mean a lot to me. Not only because of the story, but also the circumstances of where/when they were watched. And mostly from my childhood. I'll give two, but they don't really outrank all the others I consider favourites...

-- The Nightmare Before Christmas (~1993)
-- Innerspace (~1987)

I've never really compiled a Favourite Films list before, so I guess here's 10 of them which have not yet been mentioned so far in the thread (quite a few of my favourites have already been mentioned at least once so far ) - films which hold my attention significantly, or be something I would want to watch if it was on TV, or something I would own on DVD, or something which holds a special place in my heart.

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
Fight Club
O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Young Frankenstein
Local Hero
The Princess Bride
Apollo 13
Monty Python's Life of Brian
Die Hard
