One of mine matches Cruel's!
These films are not necessarily the ones that I think have the most artistic merit but are the ones that I either have some sort of sentimental attachment to or the ones that I will almost always stop and watch if they are on TV, no matter how many times I've seen them. In no particular order:
Silence of the Lambs
It's a Wonderful Life
All About Eve
Clue
Mulholland Drive
The Naked Gun
The Hours
Jacob's Ladder
The Godfather
Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte

Baby Jane was 11th, but I decided just to have one grand guignol spot. Plus, Bette Davis already was on there twice.
Oh, and Kasie, I sat and watched that film so many times while I was in high school, I could almost act it out as a one-man show for you.

Cal, then I may have to add The Secret of My Success, Never Been Kissed, Adventures in Babysitting and The Outsiders!
My sister would have to add Troop Beverly Hills. She was obsessed...
