Okay, let's assume you're going to be stuck on a desert island and can bring just 10 films with you.  I had to think about this one a bit.  The films need to stand up well to repeated viewings, obviously, plus cover enough genres for my various moods.  Which films would you take?

Here's mine, in no particular order:
[list:1750zvwc]
[imdb:1750zvwc]Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown[/imdb:1750zvwc] (1988, Almodovar) - Had to include one Almodovar film... it was a tough call between this classic and Volver.
[imdb:1750zvwc]Lost in Translation[/imdb:1750zvwc] (2003, Coppola) - I lived in Tokyo for 10 years and choose this film to remember it by.
[imdb:1750zvwc]Annie Hall[/imdb:1750zvwc] (1977, Allen) - Need a good comedy to take along... vintage Woody.
[imdb:1750zvwc]Halloween[/imdb:1750zvwc] (1978, Carpenter) - Had to have at least one good horror film.
[imdb:1750zvwc]Back to the Future[/imdb:1750zvwc] (1985, Spielberg) - Just for fun. Who is old enough to remember Pepsi Free?
[imdb:1750zvwc]Stolen Kisses[/imdb:1750zvwc] (1968, Truffaut) - I had to sneak in one Antoine Doinel film.
[imdb:1750zvwc]It&#39;s a Wonderful Life[/imdb:1750zvwc] (1946, Capra) - My favorite film of all time, even if I watch it only once a year.
[imdb:1750zvwc]The Godfather[/imdb:1750zvwc] (1972, Coppola) - Many would choose the second film... but I'll take the first, with Brando.
[imdb:1750zvwc]The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly[/imdb:1750zvwc] (Leone, 1966) - What's a desert island list without a Western?
[imdb:1750zvwc]Lord of the Rings[/imdb:1750zvwc] (2001-2003, Jackson) - Okay, technically I suppose this should take up 3 of my choices... but who cares? One of the best films ever made, and doesn't get stale after repeat viewings. Although I will say I enjoy the scenes with Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli much better than the scenes with Frodo and Sam. If I had to pick one I'd choose [imdb:1750zvwc]The Two Towers[/imdb:1750zvwc].
