    1. One flew over the cuckoo's nest.
    2. Freebie and the Bean
    3. Omen
    4. Godfather.
    5. Ben Hur
    6 The Great escape
    7. Deliverance
    8 The colour purple (original)
    9. Midnight Express
    10. Owt with Denzel Washington

    Would fit 'The Greatest showman' in there. But see it more as a musical.
    And Bambi of course. :)

    And if I can give a special mention. Imo a film you can only watch once. The 6th sense. Needs to be watched without any knowledge of the film.

    Not a massive python fan.
    But. Welease woger, Welease Bwian Is up there with the funniest moments in film. (I'm sure the centurions in the background were laughing as if never practiced the scene) Along with the farting scenes in blazing saddles.

    Annie Hall
    Casablanca

    I’m only listing 9. Reason being, I thought Dawn of the Dead, but then what about Some Like It Hot, and you can’t leave Kes out, and you call yourself a James Bond fan, and… This went on for some time, so if I don’t name a 10th I won’t feel bad about everything I leave out.
