One of the hardest questions to answer...if you had to name ONE movie, what would you say is your personal favorite ever?

Probably The Untouchables. Not the BEST movie of all-time, but one that I watch anytime it's on one of the HBOs - and it is a lot!

The best is The Godfather, though. Always have to watch that one, too.

I'm not allowed to post on this, having seen so few classic movies.

Impossible to answer.

The truly beautiful should be lawfully restricted from wearing clothing; and the truly butt-ugly should be lawfully mandated from going naked.

WALKABOUT. Don't ask me why.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Elphaba, I know there's a double feature with The Women and I think its All About Eve playing at the Castro in the coming weeks. Can't wait.

I'm changing my answer. CRASH is the new answer.

Choosing one favorite movie is impossible. I am influenced by many factors when choosing favorite movies:

Genre
Mood
Timing
Weather

For example, if I am in a happy mood, then my favorite movie selection might be Modern Times, The Patsy, Holiday, Forty Second street, or one of a doze Temple movies, like Little Miss Marker.

If I am in a darker mood, I would be choosing somthing like On Borrowed Time, Strange Cargo, The Big Street, Baby Face, or Death Takes a Holiday.

If I am in an introspective mood, I would be choosing something like the silent classic The Crowd, or The Big Parade, Design for Living, or maybe Captain's Courageous.

If I am in a vengeful mood, something like The Women, Rain, The Unholy three, West of Zanzibar, Now Voyager, or Blonde Crazy would be selected.

You see? It's impossible to have to select just one.

The Piano.

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Sponsor me as I walk the Philadelphia AIDS Walk - Sunday, October 16, 2011. Many of our friends, family and neighbors are in desperate need of health care services and other life-saving programs, but with cutbacks in government dollars , these programs are often under-funded. Now, more than ever, your donations are needed to support organizations providing HIV/AIDS awareness, prevention education, counseling and testing and care services for people living with HIV/AIDS. http://www.aidswalkphilly.org/users/index.php/profile/detail/186643

Broadway boobs,

Have you seen the original Imitation of Life? The Lana Turner version is a poor imitation of the original.
