For me it's got to be Sixth Sense, especially as I couldn't work it out, which drove me mad, but it was sooooooooo well crafted.
Definitely one of the best.
We like "28 days later", where you get 2 alternative endings, happy and sad.
my long term memory is crap... that is what allows me to have a read books repeatedly and watch films more that once.. So, I am unable to remember the endings of films and books.
Anyhoo so, the film that I remember recently that had me gulping and snorting like a kid was Milk with Sean Penn. It has to get an Oscar or something. I bawled for ages in the cinema, in fact worlass had to get me some tissue as I didn't go in prepared and 'there is no way I can leave like this'.
magic film.
Soppy bint that I am-
"An officer and a gentleman"!! when Richard Gere strides into the paper factory and sweeps Deborah Winger off her feet and carries her out!!
He'd need a fork lift for me!!!
:hunk:

El Cid .. as charlton heston rides out across the beach in front of his army
"and............always look on the bright side of life....de,doo....de,doo,de,doo,de,doo........" :mrgreen:
Going thro a Chick Flick Phase at mo
City of Angels
You gotta feel sorry for Seth
"I would rather have had one breath of her hair
one kiss of her mouth, one touch of her hand, than an eternity without it - one"
Now theres romance <goes off to sob with a box of tissues at the ready>
I can't recall the title but, she swallows, wipes the residue from her face and smiles at the camera.
Interview with a Vampire
A very sexy film
Currently watching the film "breakdown" cant wait to see how it ends!!
The Shawshank Redemption.
For the romantic me, and its an oldie, is Random Harvest, when she says "Smithie", it chokes me everytime!!!!
Mike. (for a change)
The Shawshank Redemption
The Illusionist
Sea Biscuit
Lucky Number Sleven
Some Like It Hot
"Damn it, I'm a man!"
"Well, nobody's perfect".
Casablanca
"This could be the start of a beautiful friendship".
For modern day films it has to be the ending to 7 Pounds its so thought provoking and sad, and for a classic film it has to be Jimmy Cagney in White Heat, his performance was amazing too, oh and Watership Down too, there is so many to go at when you think about it!!!!
The ending of Far North from the recent films I have seen
Day/Nightwatch we mentioned before, but I'll echo 'a good view'!!
I saw This is England on tv recently, also a very good film.
No Country for Old Men was a wonderful film, completely engrossing... that was a cinema film for me, another rarity.
Looking up the others as we speak
lp
I forgot to mention The Orphanage (L'Orphange) by Pans Labyrinth and Hellboy director Guillermo Del Toro, bloody excellent thriller/horror £6, but worth it :thumbup:
A difficult one ; but right now I reckon " V For Vendetta", also, Lindsay Anderson's "If".
xxx
Now then, Imnot going to mention the end, but this film has caught me completely by suprise for many reasons
You may see it advertised at the moment: The Escapist
a British film... a prison job.
The ending is indeed a bit of a suprise, and the whole film has a brilliant atmosphere to it... underplayed, yet still exciting.
and... but don't tell anyone (I'm blaming the recent full moon) it had me sobbing here... I wont go into why.
what I will say though is: Please watch this film.
It's wonderfull.
