Too many to narrow down! Gosh, we watch so many...
I'd have to say my all-time favorite is 1954's White Christmas...
Overall I love old movies... we have big collections of Bond, Cary Grant, Jimmy Stewart...
Other movies we routinely, and lately, stick in the DVD player include:
Casino Royale (with Daniel Craig)
Harry Potter series
Notting Hill
Sean of the Dead/Hot Fuzz
Spirit of St. Louis (Jimmy Stewart)
The Bourne series...
The Incredibles
Ratatouille
on and on...
