In the Heat of the Night. I will jump into that movie regardless of the scene. "They call me MISTER Tibbs" "I got the motive which is money and the body which is DEAD!" Two of the best movie lines ever.
A Christmas Story. "Kid, you'll shoot your eye out"
Babes in Toyland the Laurel and Hardy version hokey as heck and a much cherished part of my childhood/youth. It was broadcast more than once during The Holidays on Channel 5 in Nashville, randomly - often as time filler on Saturdays. In glorious black and white. I found the DVD with both B &W and colorized versions and of course sent them to my sisters. We wrapped many a package, decorated many a tree and baked many a cake with it running in the background
American Dreamer. Hilarious. Romantic. It's in Paris. Great cameo by Vincent Price's wife Coral Brown and definitely JoBeth Williams' best character.
Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, if only for Charles Durning's spectacular song and dance number as the Gubn'r. Bad year for Best Supporting Actor: Robert Preston (Victor,Victoria), Durning, and Louis Gossett. Gossett won (Officer and a Gentleman) If these had been 3 separate years, they all would have won the Oscar.
Pocketful of Miracles.
We're No Angels (Humphrey Bogart version) A treasure.
The Great Race (if only for the pie fight and Jack Lemmon!
Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, and many other priceless Miyazaki works of art. Except the firefly one
Already mentioned:
Victor, Victoria
Amadeus
All Mel Brooks
It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World
O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
The Princess Bride (we played it for my daughter's sisters in law; we could not believe they had never seen it.)
My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
All the Godfathers - Even #3 and the book. I have read that book several times
To KIll A Mockingbird
The Lion in Winter
I know there are others, but My Big Fat Tabby Kitty has his head on my keyboard now and things are getting difficult. I have my wrist propped on the top of his head
