Don't Do Anything (I Wouldn't Do)

Rock Collection

Thanks for the input. (Note that this list is incomplete – more movies I haven't watched yet are in the pending and currently unwatched sections of my "Watching" tag)

Favorite films

These are in order from favorite to least favorite. I would probably watch them again if given a chance, but there's a lot that I find unappealing even now. (The first one is only the second-favorite because it was my introduction to the Sixties, and a very interesting entry point.)

1. The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

2. The Day of the Dolphin (2003)

3. A Man Escaped (1956)

4. The Ninth Configuration (1980)

5. Rear Window (1954)

6. The Searchers (1956)

7. The Day of the Rope (1964)

8. The Birds (1963)

Favorite TV shows
