I never miss The Wizard of Oz when it is on even though I am 72 years old. It has the best songs, the best acting, the best set designs, a little humor here and there, and a great storyline. Not to mention the great songs like "Over the Rainbow" and "We're Off to See the Wizard"!

I love "Goodfellas." I've seen it 10 times now. My other "bestest" favorites are "It's a Wonderful Life," the original "Miracle on 34th Street" with Natalie Wood, and the original "A Christmas Carol" with Alistair Sims. Sadly, I've missed It's a Wonderful Life 3 years in a row because it's only on one time. Other movies are on weeks at a time near Christmas but not this one. It's only on Christmas Eve and we're holding our Christmas Eve party at that time.

I agree completely, but if you want an emotional trip go see "Judy" (the new film about Judy *Dorothy* Garland), but bring a large box of Kleenex.

I always enjoy A Christmas Carol (with George C. Scott), and my absolute favorite, It's a Wonderful Life!  Most movies that I like are pretty old, such as Stella Dallas (or anything with Barbara Stanwyck in it!), or Mildred Pierce (or anything with Joan Crawford in it.) I guess I'm a sucker for the melodramatic acting from back then! Also, I guess I like them more because they're not constantly swearing in them. I'm not a prude, but I get bored hearing words people nowadays use for stand-ins for intelligent words.  :peace:

If you're a Barbara Stanwyck fan, you should see Ball of Fire. It's really cute and has lots of character actors in it that you'll recognize.  :icon_rr: Plus Gary Cooper as a bonus.

I guess if you are going to watch a movie more than once, than tv is the way to do it. No one may ever know you did it!
