What are your all time favourite films?
Watch this postMine are "Body Heat" 1981 with William Hurt and Kathleen Turner.
Have seen it at least 15 times and always ready to watch again. Love the suspense and the "noir " aspect of it.
And for a comedy," Trains, Planes and Automobiles" ( think I got the order correct there ! ). Steve Martin and John Candy. Never fails to make me laugh until I cry!
Since I'm an American, most of you probably have British faves. I do like lots of them as well, but the 2 I mentioned remain my faves!
