Must see films

What are your 'must see' films ?:|  I am interested to know.  I'm living on my own in the flat and loving the fact I can watch anything I like now!  There are so many films including great classics that I have never seen. 


 


The only things I am not into are horror and sci fi or anything involving planes crashing or boats sinking.  If you have the time can you tell me a little about some of your must see films (no endings please lol!). 


 


The one's I'm planning so far are a varied mix including The Shawshank Redemption, Saturday Night Fever, Breakfast at Tiffanys, A Wonderful Life, Gone with the Wind, Dr Zhivago and The Sound of Music (well maybe lol!)


 


No matter how old or new the film please recommend away!

I ordered Working Girl off Ebay yesterday after I heard that beautiful Carly Simon song on the radio 'let the river run'

Working Girl's great, you can watch it ovwer and over!  Another good one is  While you were sleeping (Sandra Bullock) - and watch My Cousin Vinny for the great performance by Marisa Tomei!

Stardust - how can I have forget this gem of a film! LOVE this film.  Great cast.  Robert De Niro plays a camp pirate brilliantly. 


 


Can also fully endorse Bend it Like Beckham and While You Were Sleeping


 


The Usual Suspects - great, clever film
