Hi!
Anything with Johnny Depp. He's a brilliant actor and absolutely gorgeous. My favourites are 'Chocolat,' 'Pirates of the Caribbean' and 'Edward Scissorhands.'
For sentimental reasons:'Hans Christian Andersson' with Danny Kaye. Loved 'The Full Monty' for tragedy and comedy and all the Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers films for their excellent dancing. Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without 'Maiwee Poppins' and the 'real Father Christmas' film with Richard Attenborough in that New York store? Oh and 'The King's Speech', Notting Hill and of course....Casablanca! Now where is that DVD?
