    Like you, Truman Show and Forrest Gump are definitely on my list of favourites.

    I also like:

    Marcel The Shell With Shoes On
    Little Shop of Horrors
    The Pianist
    Pulp Fiction

    And lots of animations too, especially Disney/Pixar. Tangled, Tarzan, and all the Toy Story films are very nostalgic for me!

    Portmanteau/anthologies are my favourite subgenre to.

    There's over 25 of them available on disc we live in blessed times.

    Re AHS I watched the first four or five seasons when they first came out but I couldn't tell you a thing about series 6 onwards or what series we're up to now the novelty wore off for me when Jessica lange left.
