Play It Again Sam

For me it would be a tie between My Big Fat Greek Wedding and Pretty Woman -- by far, my two favorite movies. The former because somehow I can relate to the big Greek family (and my husband’s windex is WD-40). The latter because apparently I am a sucker for a good Cinderella story.


So what would your movie be?

Finish this sentence. If I was forced to watch one movie over and over again it would be . . .

I am a sucker for It's a Wonderful LIfe, having seen it over 542 times alread. Next is The In-laws, absolutely the best comedy film of all times.

The 1963 Tom Jones with Albert Finney. Tom talked to me from the screen and it proved that I was eating the right way.

Your husband is right. This country runs on WD 40, Velcro and duct tape

Easy. The original 1967 version of "The Producers" with Zero Mostel and a very young Gene Wilder. Second, and this is a generational "thing", the 1978 masterpiece, "Animal House."

Two, if I notice are on, always tempting to tune in & watch to the end are All the President's Men and (yes), Casablanca. Other classics I love are Yankee Doodle Dandy and The Philadelphia Story; a third I enjoy is Something's Gotta Give, (tho not a classic). Caught American Graffiti a few days ago & hadn't seen in years - it's quite iconic of an era a bit before my time, and very well made. There definitely are a few others I love not immediately coming to mind on this spur-reply. PS, I hereby trademark the term spur-reply. Iris W.
