Here goes: <BR> <BR>No. 1: Pulp Fiction. I've seen it more times than any other film other than the Wizard of Oz. <BR> <BR>No. 2: Life is Beautiful. How could anyone even think of making a film like this? <BR> <BR>No. 3: Raging Bull. Making a good film in black and white is really hard. <BR> <BR>No. 4: Schindler's List. Another gutsy film, both because of the use of black and white and the subject matter. <BR> <BR>No. 5: A Soldier's Story. Very honest treatment of self-esteem issues among African Americans. Overlooked by Oscar. Too bad. <BR> <BR>In the special category of films that actually made me (of all people!) cry, I'll nominate Sophie's Choice, Terms of Endearment, The Joy Luck Club.
