Barry Lyndon is tied with If, Ponyo, Mulholland Dr., Road House, Rear Window, and like twenty other movies for my favorite movie.

of the ones on there I agree with clockwork and full metal. the shining is a film I’ve seen 4 times and for some reason or other never watched the whole thing. it needs to be rectified.
