2)    Blow-Up  -  1966 

3)    I Walked With a Zombie  -  1943; Francis Dee; rough reworking of 'Jane Eyre' set in the Caribbean  

4)    Plenty  -  1985 - Meryl Streep, Charles Dance, Sting, Tracy Ullman  

5)    Blue Velvet  -  1986 

6)    Arturo's Island  -  1962, Italian 

7)    Manhattan  -  1979 

8)    Annie Hall  -  1977 

9)    Pandora's Box  -  1929; German; Silent; Louise Brooks

10)  The Women  -  1939; Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford, Paulette Goddard, Joan Fontaine 

11)  The Trouble With Harry  -   1955; Hitchcock Comedy; Shirley MacLaine, John Forsythe, Jerry Mathers, Ed Gwen  

12)  On the Waterfront  -  1954; Brando at his best

19)  All About Eve  -  1950; Bette Davis, Marilyn Monroe in cameo

For me, one of the greatest scenes in all of film is when the bratty little girl in 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof' carelessly drops her ice cream on the Elizabeth Taylor character's elegant shoe, and ET picks the ice cream up and smashes it into the girl's face. Wouldn't we all like to do something like that once in life.
