    This is a nice post, thanks for the reminder to pull out and re-watch some classic movies I haven't seen in awhile.
    I went with:
    Marty
    Ben Hur
    Patton
    GF1
    GF2

    I really want to add Lawrence and Kwai, but these five are fantastic films.

    Lawrence of Arabia
    The French Connection

    5. Oliver!!!!!
    That's more votes than it has over all so far, not because I think it's 5 times better than anything else but it is a good film of a fantastic musical with not enough love on the Steve Hoffman site!
