My "Desert Island" Movies

This is a list of the movies that have done more than entertain me; they have inspired me, moved me, enlightened me to the point where they become something else, gems I can constantly revisit without loss of love.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
Spirited Away (2001)
All About Eve (1950)
Schindler's List (1993)
To Kill a Mockingbird (1962)
Singin' In the Rain (1952)
The Shining (1980)
Casablanca (1942)
Some Like It Hot (1959)
The Shawshank Redemption (1994)

Highly Honorable Mentions

 
Dr. Strangelove (1964)
North By Northwest (1959)
Vertigo (1958)
Psycho (1960)

Of course, this list is based upon personal opinion only. It should be noticed, though, that most of the listed movies have been critically acclaimed.
