I've been trying to think of an answer for 30 minutes, and I can't. Picking favourites is painfully hard for me.

My biggest problem with favorites would be you see more movies over time and have to replace them with new favorites as well, so you can never clearly choose a real favorite at all.

I've been trying to think of an answer for 30 minutes, and I can't. Picking favourites is painfully hard for me. Me too ! So I dance around the favorites questions. I don't actually have one favorite in any genre. Many that I REALLY really like ! I don't even have a TOP whatever number list. I have tried but it's impossible.

No particular favorites, but I enjoyed Orphans of the Storm and many of the Our Gang shorts which were much grittier than the later sanitized versions, courtesy of MGM.

I don't know if its my absolute favorite, but I really like, "The Passion of Joan of Arc" (1928) directed by Carl Theodor Dreyer. If memory serves, they thought that all copies of this movie were destroyed (I think in a fire), shortly after it was made, but many years later they found a copy of the movie in a closet at an asylum. They played this movie either on AMC or TCM. It was excellent!

I second that. That and Metropolis were probably the two most influential.

I realize that I am possibly opening a can of worms here BUT The Birth of a Nation (1915) is a darn good movie and a landmark in cinema history. There are scenes that are just technically so before their time. And affecting ? The homecoming of The Little Colonel and the cotton false ermine on the girl's dress. Just !
