Can you really pick a favourite?

I hate getting non-personal e-mails (which means I just may have to actually reply to some email-pals... any how...) but I love getting the weekly newsletter in my inbox on Friday nights from the lovely down-to-earth people at Empire Magazine. This week they challenged us to think of our favourite top ten films. Here are mine listed below for the next... well... until I remember a fabulous film I forgot.

My greatest movies of all time are...
1 The Shawshank Redemption
Hope is right up there on my value system.
2 The Silence of the Lambs
Will always give me the shivers. Fantastic everything.
3 The Sixth Sense
I just adore the attention to detail to the best plot twist I've ever seen.
4 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
The snappiest script I've ever watched in motion with a stellar cast.
5 Sunset Blvd.
The best obsession based film setting the perfect tone in every scene.
6 The Matrix
I still like chunky boots and black leather coats nearly a decade on.
7 Ocean's Eleven
Probably the film I've watched the most. Best use of characters and dialogue with the perfectly paced plot.
8 Galaxy Quest
Every time I watch a sci-fi film or series, I think of this film.
9 Forrest Gump
One of my first sentimental favourites.
10 A League of Their Own
Best example of a fantastic lead female character with a perfect mix of drama and light comedy.
