Desert Island Movies



You know the idea from the Desert Island Discs, you are stranded on a desert island for five years with only a solar powered VCR
and your ten favourite videos. Which 10 would you take? Would you take 10 that make you look intelligent and serious or would you take 10 that you'd actually enjoy?


Me, I'd go for enjoyment everytime!


Dead Again
Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson in a twisty little film noir. Way cool!

The Quick and the Dead

Sharon Stone's feminist take on the Western. I like it because I discovered Russell Crowe when I watched this film

Tremors
Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, giant earthworms need I say more?

Strictly Ballroom
Paul Mercurio and Tara Morice dancing Down Under. Wonderful fun.

A Fish Called Wanda
John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis and the brilliant Kevin Kline. Every time I watch this I fall madly in love with John Cleese and almost die laughing.

Persuasion
A romantic movie from Jane Austen's last finished novel. The hand touching scene is sooo romantic.

DieHard
Okay, it is Bruce Willis but it is a great action film with a great villian, Alan Rickman.

Jumpin' Jack Flash
It isn't one of Whoopi Goldberg's better known films, but I really love it. I like Stephen Collin's performance as the new guy in the office. A lot of fun.

Some Kind of Wonderful
Eric Stoltz, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Lea Thompson in a little John Hughes flick that made me want to go back to high school, just so I could see if there were any guys like Eric Stoltz there. Some of the scenes in this are unforgettable.

Film10 will be named at a later date!
