My 100 Favourite Movies
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- These are my 100 Favourite movies. That doesn’t mean to say that they’re the best 100. It just means they’re films that I’ve enjoyed over the years. Is it definitive? Probably not, because I’m bound to have forgotten to add some movies, but it’s good enough for me. If I add others, I’ll do an updated version later.

Wow, how long did it take you to put that together; that was awesomely done. Some of my favorites made it and some didn't. And as you said, some should be on there, if I could only remember what they were.
It probably took 6 to 7 hours by the time I found the clips and put them all together, then added music and filming my bits.
Glad it was enjoyable for you.
Oh wow! What can I say James that was an absolutely fantastic list of your 100 favourite films, and there’s plenty of mine in there too, especially Midnight Cowboy, Saving Private Ryan ( which incidentally I think it’s arguably one of the best war films of all time) but I gotta say I’m so glad one film which i remember seeing years ago is in there, and that’s The Englishman who went up a hill and came down a mountain, I absolutely loved that one, and for me one of Hugh Grant’s best films, but looking at the list there’s loads I like, especially Gone with the wind, Raiders of the lost ark, The Sting, When Harry met Sally, The Italian Job, and even your number 1 Field of dreams, which is definitely one of Kevin Costner’s best films, so that’s good we like that one, and also Back to the future, and that’s absolutely brilliant, thanks for doing another great video James, keep em’ coming! 😁👍
You're welcome! It was a fun list to do.
I thought that film was so underrated.
What a great selection. I have watched 52 of them. You have given me more to add to my bucket list of movies to watch. My top 5 would be. 1.Sound of Music 2. It's a wonderful Life 3. Pride & Prejudice (but that is more of series) /Titanic (an Actual Movie) 4. Love Actually 5. Bridget Jones Diary trilogy. I have several lists. 1. Bucket list of movies to watch 2. top 100 I have watched 3. Top 50 I would watch over and over. I love the classics. I also love how Eclectic your selection is. So is mine. Well Done!
I'm glad you enjoyed them. There are plenty of other films that could have made my list.
My tastes are very fluid. In thae last 6 weeks I've seen 2 films, Elizabethtown and What We Disld On Our Holiday that almost crashed into my 100.
I love films.
Thanks for sharing.
@JamesMurphyYT oh I love both those Movies.
@@sparklingrosecreations glad you enjoyed them too.
Lots of good ones in there, and lots I haven’t seen. My girls loved seven Brides For Seven Brothers. 😄
I've liked it since I was a kid.
My jaw hit the floor when you said “Field of Dreams” was your #1, for two reasons, the first, it’s my favorite film too! Secondly, I didn’t think you knew anything about baseball 😅Not that you have to, to enjoy that film. Was surprised. This was fun. My wife watched it and she knew the majority of the old films and musicals. Not me. And you had her #1, Love Actually. A lot of fun, but I have to ask, no JAWS??? 🦈
There's a section in Fiels Of Dreams when he talks about his Dad, and it rang so true for me. I get choked when he plays ball with his Dad, and the James Earl Jones speech just grabs me.
As for Jaws... I forgot it!
@@JamesMurphyYT Yes, the same part of the movie gets me too! Not so much thinking about MY dad (yeah, that's a waste) but more about me having a toss with my sons.
It's just a great movie.
@@JamesMurphyYT I have an idea I will share with you in our FB group.
Great list Jimbo, you sparked a few memories there, movies that need to be revisited for sure. Some of my favourites include: A Good Year / The Intern / Tortilla Soup / Whiplash / Chef.....and some Bollywood stuff.
We watched Chef again couple of weeks ago. It came close to being in the 100.
I was thinking on my top 5 and I could not do it. So many great movies I love from so many different genres. Even a top 10 would be really hard.some movies I really love, though, are Jaws, Close encounters Of The Third Kind,Jurassic Park, A Christmas Story, The Muppets Christmas Carol, North By Northwest, The Alamo (John Wayne), It’s A Wonderful Life, Blazing Saddles, Caddyshack, Twister, the original Godzilla, A Silent Voice, Spaceballs, and a few others that are slipping my mind right now.
Thanks for sharing. It's great fun thinking about it though.
Gorgeous list.
Thank you
Great list you have a few of my favourites. Cinema Paradiso is one of them. My top five are:
1. Singin In The Rain
2. Easter Parade
3. La Strada
4. Meet Me In St Louis
5. A Fistful Of Dollars
I'm not sure which I prefer out of Singin In The Rain or Easter Parade. Tomorrow Easter Parade could be number one.
Meet me In St Louis is one I forgot! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome list! My #1 is your #25 😊 I saw Cinema Paradiso for the first time earlier this year and watched the director’s cut. I later found out it’s quite different from the theatrical cut. Which do you prefer?
First saw the theatrical cut and felt it was unfinished and seeing the directors cut turned it into almost my favourite film.
It's just stunning (if you like that kind of film)
thanks for sharing!
i would recommend the dutch 1997 movie "character". seems a genre you like.
I'll check it out. Thanks!
Nice to see a few classics.
I've probably forgotten some as well.
First film that really moved me was Dr Zhivago when I was only ten. I became really interested in Russian history/culture. Similarly, The Deer Hunter left me with some powerful images. Got to include ET and Cast Away. Ok ...... I have to mention The Way We Were. Maybe not the best film but it has Barbra Streisand, Robert Redford and the song. What's not to like? I agree, Cinema Paradiso is up there. Some great ideas in your list for my future viewing!
Damn... I forgot Dr Zhivago. Great film. The only film in your list I don't have on DVD is The Deer Hunter, which is a film I've always struggled with. I've watched it 4 times and never managed to get past the wedding!
Thanks for sharing.
The Deer Hunter is obviously not for you! The war scenes are the ones that make a lasting impact. I had trouble with The English Patient, tried the film and book about 4 times and gave up. I think both won the Oscar for best film but sometimes they just don't grab the viewer. I found Le Chateau de Ma Mere dvd for a few pounds after you mentioned it in a previous video. Loved it and found a few other French/Italian films including La Gloire de Mon Pere. I think I should have lived in another gentler time. I forgot to include Local Hero in my fave films, simple, quirky and great music.
@ajd6627 I forgot Local Hero too. Great film!
Brilliant list. Great video.
Thank you.
Such a great selection. I'd really have trouble making a top 100 films as I average 30 films a week. And for the last 10+ years or so I have struggled with short term memory loss.
As for a top 5, I think this would be constant....
1. Wizard of Oz
2. Blade Runner
3. Star Wars
4. Superman
5. The Godfather
Wow! I don't think I've ever seen that many films in a week. Great list by the way. Thanks for sharing.
To compile my list, I just went through my DVDs and pulled them from there.
Was curious if even one of my favorites would be on the list but no. And that's okay. My favorites tend not to be high-budget-blockbusters anyhow.
1. The Riddle of the Sands (little known and too slow for most folks but I've loved it for 45 years)
2. Shiawase no Pan (in English that's The Bread of Happiness, and it's wonderful)
3. Ditto (the original year 2000 version and definitely not the remake)
4. A Christmas Carol (the one with George C. Scott)
5. Ondine (perhaps it may not stay at #5 but for now it sure is)
Thank you. I've not heard of any of them, so they go onto my list of films to go on the hunt for.
My top 5 movies are
1) Jurassic Park 1993
2) The Howling 1981
3) The Evil Dead 1981
4) Conan The Barbarian 1982
5) Blood In Blood Out 1993
Cool set of films! Thanks for sharing.
MANY OF MY FAVES in your list.... my fave is the third man....
I'd never seen it until a couple of months ago. By the end of that bloody theme music was getting on my wick!
amazing!!
Glad you enjoyed it.

There's some great films on your list, many of which I've seen and could have made my Top100 on another day.
I could have done a 200 fairly easily, I think.
Thanks for sharing your list.
You're welcome.
Top 5:
1. INLAND EMPIRE
2. Perfect Days
3. La Haine
4. The Prestige
5. Eraserhead
I'm ashamed to say I've only seen Eraserhead in that selection.
I need to check the others out.
There are only 4, (mostly early on) that I did not know, or at least know OF, and three are French, two intrigue me.
The much lesser-known "The Englishman That Went Up a Hill" and "Memento" are certainly on my list of favorites, along with others.
I don't know where to start on a shortlist. my tastes are fluid. I could easily do a 500 movie list, let alone 5. I could easily do 50 in each genre. Below are just the ones I have watched innumerable times that are not on your list.
In no particular order: All About Eve, The Original Star Wars, Rob Roy, Point of No Return, Inn of the Sixth Happiness... oh, so many, many, many more: Bedazzled, Gigi, John Carpenter's Vampires, Babette's Feast, The Secret of Roan Inish.
As you can see, my tastes are all over the place. I know that I could do 100 more lists of 5.
I feel like that too. My list inall truthfulness could have been so different because they're eclectic.
Toe of the French films My father's Glory and my Mother's castle follow each other as they are about the same family.
They're gentle films with a great story.
Thanks for sharing.
You have a great taste in films.
Thank you.
Thanks for the memories.
Most of the titles brought back the memories that surrounded my seeing them.
My Number One since 1968 is Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet which I watch at least once a year now that they have DVDs. By chasing it around to all the venues, including universities that showed it for years, I saw it 300 times by 1980 and the first VHS release had to be special ordered and was worth every penny ($89)...it was still x-rated.
And most of all thanks for 92 and 93, as they are in my top 5 and most people have never heard of them.
They say that 90% of seniors' brains are song lyrics and movie/TV lines. True for me!
I don't think I've seen Romeo and Juliet. I'll have to search it out. I really should have done a top 200 because since I made the list, I keep remembering films that should have been in the list that I'd forgotten when I was compiling it! Perhaps next year...
@@JamesMurphyYT As I read your list, more movies came to me too! No video games and afternoon old movies on TV let us see a lot.
@@missjoshemmett I'll probably do another one at a later date.
My top 5 would probably all be James Bond. From Russia With Love has to be number one.
My favourite Bond film is one that most don't like, the George Lazenby one.
@@JamesMurphyYT On Her Majesties Secret Service is becoming one of the most popular Bond films nowadays. There's a lot of people who have it near the top of their Bond rankings.
@rarerecordcollector9459 I always thought it was a least liked one.
@@JamesMurphyYT it used to be
@rarerecordcollector9459 Wahey! I was in front of the curve. Never been that before!
Great list. So many classics and plenty new ones for me to look forward too. I see I’m not the only who can’t enjoy the ‘modern’ films…Hollywood has given us 15-20 years of mostly unwatchable rubbish.
I've always been a fan of the older films since I was little. I used to watch them with my parents. Glad you enjoyed the list
Top 5. 1/ Saving Private Ryan. 2/ empire strikes back. 3/ the green mile. 4/ The Godfather. 5/ Dead Calm.
I don't think I know Dead
Thanks for sharing
@@JamesMurphyYT stars Sam neill, Nicole Kidman and billy zane. Excellent.
@@matthewmedley8532 I'll have to look out for it. Thanks.
