I can't pick! Too many good ones... so from the top of my head I have to say favorite movie: The Last of the Mohicans - the one from the 90's but I also liked Gladiator, and anything from the 30's and 40's last night I watched Stagedoor with Kate Hepburn and Ginger Rogers - classic.

The one book I'm picking today is The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson. Tomorrow I'll think of a million of them I could have chosen!

I love to read and watch old movies. I have many faves but my very fave movie and book would be To Kill a Mockingbird.

By far my favorite book is To Kill A Mockingbird. I have about three or four copies of it and a couple movies, one vhs and one dvd.

Ahhh, I'm a self-proclaimed bibliophile so this is hard! I'm a huge, huge lover of Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead possibly being my all time favourite (go MayberrySaint!!). I enjoy a somewhat strange variety of books, anywhere from Harry Potter to Tolstoy. I find that I tend to go with the weather! Light-hearted and fun in the summer, deeper and thought provoking in the winter.

Movie: too many to name, but since I've just rewatched it, I'll say Pan's Labyrinth. What an amazing film.

Star wars - Movie
Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy's - Book (havent read it in 20 years and the movie sucked).

I can’t remember the last book I read? (haven’t had time to read since the kids)
But, my all time fav movie is Raiders of the Lost Ark!

 

[Queen of the Lilliputians]

My all time favorite book is Beauty by Robin McKinley, but I'd have to say the very close runners up are George RR Martin's Books.. I forget what the name of the series is off-hand, but the last one he put out is A Feast For Crows. That and FitzChivalry Farseer series by Robin Hobb. <All fantasy novels, btw>. The last two series are not to be missed, and the first book I listed I've probably read.. oh, 15x


As for movies.. that's a harder one. I think my favorite was A Perfect World with Kevin Costner.. makes me cry every time.


And I agree, what the heck was up with that Hitchhiker's guide movie?? The book was funny and clever.. the movie was just plain odd.
