My Favourite Film

Last night I watched the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's (ABC) list of Australia's Top 10 favourite films as selected by Australian viewers. I'd like to point out that this list has no bearing on greatness, and often the films chosen are turkeys or downright dull in my honest opinion. Of most annoyance to me, there was only one film that was over 30 years old "Gone With The Wind", which definitely drags after intermission into a ridiculous melodrama, going on and on. I have decided to present this list, and then show what my list would be.

ABC Viewer's Poll List of My Favourite Film:

1. The Lord of the Rings
2. Amelie
3. Blade Runner
4. The Shawshank Redemption
5. Donnie Darko
6. Star Wards: Episode IV - A New Hope
7. Pulp Fiction
8. The Princess Bride
9. G0ne With the Wind
10. Fight Club
