What is your most favorite movie?

One movie, one album, one friend there all too tough but if stranded on the desert island with one movie id like:
Usual Suspects

Have to agree. Watched it again over this weekend and it was as fresh as ever. Spent an hour or so arguing with a friend as to which bits needed to be true and which bits were recounted by Verbal and could therefore be false. That's a movie!
Album would be Pet Sounds, book The Magus by John Fowles.

Recent movies I have really liked would be Inglourious Basterds, Shutter Island, A Serious Man and Inception.

Last time I went to the movies was in 1964 on the Champs Elysee. They were playing Dr. Zsivago. But some of my favorites were with Louis de Funes - they were in black and white. Lots of laugh.

Johnwillyums, Cheers mate I'm sure over the years I've watched that movie 20 times.
whs, Now Dr. Zhivago that's an epic movie and requires popcorn, milk duds and soda with an intermission or two !

I'm fairly partial to some German movies I've seen WHS and would want some of them on my island as well. Aguirre, Wrath of God by Werner Herzog is endlessly watchable I find.
Also some of Fassbinder's stuff. The Goalkeeper's Fear of The Penalty maybe. Oh and Metropolis. This is an impossible decision.

Ferris Buehler's Day Off
