Yes, they are all awesome. There's so many I can list, but I want to get an idea of which are the very favorites of folks if they had to choose.

Btw, where's your list!

I'm really big on stories and screenplays. Two favorites in my top 10 are Keeper of the Flame with Spencer Tracy and Kathryn Hepburn and All My Sons written by Arthur Miller with Edward G. Robinson and Burt Lancaster. Both are intense war and post-war dramas with great twists and turns in getting down to painful truths behind cover-ups. And both are worth adding to a classic DVD collection. In case some don't know, you can purchase classic DVDs from TCM, some at discounted prices.

I would try Amazon.com first. They're way cheaper then TCM.

So, Ol' Jet, are these two films part of the 3 you would pick as a guest programmer on TCM? Where's the 3rd choice?

I actually found some great prices on movies on TCM. i think it depends on the specials they run.
I don't know what I would do as a guest programmer, i have to think about that. Offhand, I guess the two I mentioned could be it with maybe Rebecca.. These would be my choices for pics that have great twists and surprise endings.

eBay can also be a good place to buy movies.

A good place to buy lots of stuff, Miss Scarlett. I have found great bargains on ebay, altho I've never thought of buying movies from them. Another great place for movies and books is Half.com - I think it's a sub of Amazon, not sure, but I've gotton many great deals from them as well.

I bought what I think might be my favorite movie of all time on Half.com - 'Brief Encounter' - $6, TCM has it for over $30!!!
