Wizard of Oz.
Because it's beautiful, nah I love it, seen as it was made in 1939 and everything is so delicious.

Difficult to narrow it down as I'm a big fan of film but the films that most inspire me are fight club, good will hunting and american beauty. They really make me think about my own life and what I should or should not be doing.

this is a very very hard question but tbh if i had to choose one it would be a toss-up between
Four weddings cos i love the waistcoats(!!) and John Hannah is amazing in it.
or
Breakfast at Tiffanys as it is a complete classic and when Audrey Hepburn sings Moonriver it is beautiful.

At the moment, I'm leaning towards animation. Specifically Wall-E and Shrek (1+2), just because I love the sountracks and they are the few films I can't look at and think "No, not in the mood for that".

"Best" and "favourite" aren't the same thing. My favourites are probably Lock Stock, and Gattaca.

My favourite film is Amélie. It's so cute and arty and makes me dream of Paris.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It's weird, wonderful, romantic, funny, tragic and beautiful, with impeccable, slightly twisted direction, some incredible performances and an absolutely tremendous, imaginative script. I can't think of one bad thing about it. In fact, I'm going to go watch it now.
