    Today, it is:

    Casablanca
    North By Northwest
    The Sting
    Ragtime
    Hoop Dreams

    But there are probably at least 50 others that could be there on any given day. The only one that must always and at all times be on the list is Casablanca.

    Edit: I now regret not including Spirited Away, but rules are rules (and even mentioning it is cheating, but I'll recover from the shame).

    Wow. Picking only five is tough because of the different genre's of films released. So many good comedies. As with sci-fi etc. But, I'm going to try to name 5 which is about as tough as tough can get, although I have no problem with my number one.

    1. Forrest Gump-My all time favorite without a shadow of a doubt. Has every human emotion imaginable in it. Any time it's on tv, I have a hard time changing the channel.

    2. Being There-Poignant film starring Peter Sellers as "Chance" or a little later "Chauncey". What he knows in life is from watching TV. Great, Great movie.

    3. Wedding Crashers-I wanted a comedy to be in my top 5 (because I love a great comedy and their are so many) but I have probably watched this one more than 3 times & it never gets old because it rings so true.

    4. Interstellar-Just a great sci-fi movie that has it all and still makes me think when I watch it.

    5. Transcendence- I loved it and I hope they make a part two.

    There are so many great movie though and it's so freaking hard to narrow it to just 5. I mean, I left of Raiders Of The Lost Ark for crying out loud!!!
