I have seen 70 of the AFI's Top 100 Films of All Time and I have to go with the consensus favorite: Citizen Kane.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

That's awesome you have seen so many of them. Have you seen A Place In The Sun? What do you think of it?

The greatest movie ever? For me its a tie between A Streetcar Named Desire (1951) and The Godfather (1972)...or young Brando vs older Brando lol

I’ve seen it many times. First film Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift made together - and their chemistry is electric. Shelley Winters is great, too. Oddly, the film won the Oscars for best director and screenplay, but not film.

Brando should have been in the sequels. Why wasn't he?

Maybe because his character died and he was too old to play a younger version? lol

Brando was only 47 years old in The Godfather. Only 7 years older than my husband. I have no real reason why I'm saying this other than I thought it was interesting.

I don´t really know about "the greatest" and think it´s very subjective but all I can say is that I really, really like The Godfather, all parts, even part III, and I have watched Rocky parts 1 and 6 very often (I can´t stand part 4 and 5 though). I´ve also watched Mad Max pt.II (The Road Warrior) countless times and know every single line from that movie.

And I love Conan the Barbarian with Arnold. lol

A Bronx Tale is another one of my all time favorites.

Haha I wanted to say body of evidence to be sarcastic, but you guys beat me to it! I saw like 5 minutes of that movie when I was sneaking around

I would definitely include clueless and legally blonde in my top 5 of all time.

I saw desperately seeking Susan years ago but don’t remember much of it. Was too camp for my taste though I like 80s movies, wouldn’t mind watching it again actually! Never seen shanghai though I remember seeing the next best thing in the theatre when it came out and her acting was decent
