Here's a list of my favourite films of all time. It's already changed quite a bit since I first wrote the list a few years ago, and it will no doubt change many times over the next few years. I will also speak about some of these films in more detail in future posts as film reviews. There is a fair amount of comedy films in this list, and not a great deal of what you could call 'proper cinema'! I can safely say I have seen most (if not all) of these films atleast 10 times each, with some (like the top three) being watched atleast double that amount! At the time of writing, I am trying to expand the number and type of films I watch, but at the same time, I have always been the type of person who likes watching old favourites over and over again!
