    It's got to be The Shawshank Redemption. Closely followed by Stand By Me.

    @daz2 the shawshank redemption was a great story, Tim robbins played the part well and Morgan Freeman films are usually good. Stephen King again I think as was The Green Mile, Tom Hanks, another great actor.

    I liked Jeremiah Johnson (1972) with Robert Redford playing the lead roll, an interesting film too. Dances with wolves is another good ‘cowboy’ film with Kevin Costner.

    One of my favourite films is Hairspray the one with John Travolta in it. I love the singing and no matter what comes your way, you can overcome it.

    I’ve really enjoyed all the Indiana Jones films, though the crystal skulls one was a bit different.

    James McAvoy is probably my favourite actor. Been a fan since he did the BBC modernisation of Macbeth

    My favourite film is Midnight in Paris with Owen Wilson and Rachel McAdams. 1920s Paris is my favourite era and I would love to travel back in time to it

    One of my favourite actors of all time was Gregory Peck, very good in The Omen and The Boys From Brazil, oldies but goodies.

    wizard of oz and casablanca are my all time, sound of music, and grease, but I cry my eyes out every time at the Hugh Jackman Anne Hathaway in Les Miserables!

    I like the old Richard prior stuff as far as funny films but we'll into my sci fi. Any trek film or series and Patrick Stewart is excellent actor lol.
