Best Holiday Movies of All-Time


In selecting my list of favourite Holiday Season movies of all-time, I leaned more towards traditional and classic films. 

I also looked for some common themes. To me, Christmas is all about spending time with family and friends through holiday rituals. It is about giving, sharing, love, hope, joy and celebration.  It is about good feelings towards each other and peace on earth. Christmas is also about finding redemption, second chances and miracles. People have a chance to rediscover a new self-awareness and learn what is truly important in their lives. There is a renewal of hope and even the possibility of finding romance. It is about discovering the beauty of humankind.

Here are my top Holiday films of all-time:

# Film Year

2 Miracle on 34th Street  1947

Best Science Fiction Films of All-Time


The American Film Institute (AFI) defines “science fiction” as a genre that marries a scientific or technological premise with imaginative speculation.” In 2008, they compiled a list of the top ten science fiction films of all-time. 

Tim Dirks of AMC’s Filmsite describes the science fiction film genre as follows:

Sci-fi films are often quasi-scientific, visionary and imaginative – complete with heroes, aliens, distant planets, impossible quests, improbable settings, fantastic places, great dark and shadowy villains, futuristic technology, unknown and unknowable forces, and extraordinary monsters (‘things or creatures from space’), either created by mad scientists or by nuclear havoc. They are sometimes an offshoot of fantasy films, or they share some similarities with action/adventure films. Science fiction often expresses the potential of technology to destroy humankind and easily overlaps with horror films, particularly when technology or alien life forms become malevolent, as in the “Atomic Age” of sci-fi films in the 1950s.

Here are my top ten science fiction films of all-time:

# Film Year
1 Blade Runner
  1982
2 The Day the Earth Stood Still
  1951

6 Brazil  1985
7 Star Trek

8 A Clockwork Orange
  1971
9 The Terminator  1984
10 Planet of the Apes  1968

Honourable mention (in order): Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977); Minority Report  (2002); Forbidden Planet (1956);  Inception (2010); Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991); Avatar (2009); The Time Machine  (1960); Twelve Monkeys (1995); Metropolis (1927); Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986); Donnie Darko (2001); District 9 (2009); I, Robot (2004); Children of Men (2006); Source Code (2011); The Road Warrior (1981); Star Trek: First Contact (1996); Serenity (2005); Gattaca (1997); Soylent Green (1973); The Andromeda Strain (1971) 

Note: I categorize Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial as fantasy films. Alien and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, I would categorize as horror films.

Here is the AFI’s List:

# Film Year
1 2001: A Space Odyssey 1968

Favourite Stephen King quotes:
  • It’s better to be good than evil, but one achieves goodness at a terrific cost.
  • People want to know why I do this, why I write such gross stuff. I like to tell them I have the heart of a small boy… and I keep it in a jar on my desk.
  • The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of because words diminish your feelings – words shrink things that seem timeless when they are in your head to no more than living size when they are brought out.
  • We make up horrors to help us cope with the real ones.
  • You can’t deny laughter; when it comes, it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants.

Honourable Mention:

  1. Doctor Dolittle (1967)

Best Faye Dunaway Movies


Faye Dunaway is my favourite movie actress of the 1970’s. In the tradition of Hollywood stars like Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, Dunaway gave commanding performances on the screen in some memorable roles. Through some bad choices in the 1980’s, her movie career lost its momentum. Now she mostly makes guest appearances on television. Dunaway received her Academy Award for Best Actress in 1977.

In order, here are my favourite Faye Dunaway movies:

  1. Chinatown (1974)
  2. Network (1976)
  3. Bonnie and Clyde (1967)
  4. The Thomas Crown Affair (1968)
  5. Three Days of the Condor (1975)
  6. The Towering Inferno (1974)
  7. The Three Musketeers (1973)
  8. The Four Musketeers (1974)
  9. Little Big Man (1970)
  10. Barfly (1987)
  11. Eyes of Laura Mars (1978)
  12. Mommie Dearest (1981) 
Favourite Faye Dunaway quotes:
  • It’s true, I did a lot of great movies, and I’m happy. It was what it was, and now I think all of that has fed into where I am now, and I think it has taught me a lot. 
  • Since Star Wars, that film’s success led to bigger budgets, more hardware, that the great movies like the ones I did, which were studio movies, are now independent movies. They range from half a million to several million, and a lot of those have very interesting roles.

Best Dustin Hoffman Movies


Dustin Hoffman is my favourite actor of the 1970’s. In many of his earlier roles, he seemed to be cast as the outsider at odds with society. Nominated for many awards over the years, he has now matured into one the screen’s great character actors. Hoffman has won the Best Actor Oscar twice and has been nominated seven times.

In order, here are my favourite Dustin Hoffman Movies:

  1. The Graduate (1967) 
  2. Midnight Cowboy (1969)
  3. Kramer vs. Kramer (1979)
  4. Rain Man (1988)
  5. Tootsie (1982)
  6. Marathon Man (1976)
  7. All the President’s Men (1976)
  8. Lenny (1974)
  9. Papillon (1973)
  10. Straw Dogs (1971)
  11. Wag the Dog (1997)
  12. Finding Neverland (2004)
  13. Sleepers (1996) 
  14. Hero (1992)
  15. Little Big Man (1970)
  16. Moonlight Mile (2002)
  17. Last Chance Harvey (2008)
  18. Runaway Jury (2003)
  19. Hook (1991)
  20. Dick Tracy (1990)
Favourite Dustin Hoffman Quotes:
  • So when I told my parents I wanted to go into acting because I was flunking out of my first year of junior college, they were relieved that I had picked something other than joining the army. But I can’t imagine how they had high hopes for me.
  • There’s a rebirth that goes on with us continuously as human beings. I don’t understand, personally, how you can be bored. I can understand how you can be depressed, but I just don’t understand boredom.

Best of Alfred Hitchcock


Alfred Hitchcock is my favourite film director of all-time, as he is the master of suspense. What I particularly enjoy about Hitchcock films is how he takes ordinary people and places them in extraordinary circumstances where they face increasing jeopardy from an outside force. This allows the audience to identify with the main characters. Here, Hitchcock takes the audience on a ride, continually raising the stakes as the film moves towards its climax. Although he never won an Oscar for Best Director, he has received numerous awards and nominations during his career.

In order, here are my favourite Hitchcock movies:

  1. Rear Window (1954)
  2. Vertigo (1958)
  3. Rebecca (1940)
  4. Strangers on a Train (1951)
  5. Psycho (1960)
  6. North by Northwest (1959)
  7. Suspicion (1941)
  8. Dial M for Murder (1954)
  9. Shadow of a Doubt (1943)
  10. Spellbound (1945)
  11. Rope (1948)
  12. The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956)
  13. Notorious (1946)
  14. To Catch a Thief (1955)
  15. Lifeboat (1944)
  16. Foreign Correspondent (1940)
  17. The Birds (1963)
  18. The 39 Steps (1935)
  19. The Lady Vanishes (1938)
  20. The Trouble with Harry (1955)
  21. The Wrong Man (1956)
  22. I Confess (1953)
  23. Stage Fright (1950)
  24. Sabotage (1936)
  25. Marnie (1964)
  26. Frenzy (1972)
  27. Topaz (1969)
  28. Family Plot (1976)

I have always loved how Hitchcock described the art of creating suspense in a film:

“Imagine a restaurant where there’s is a ticking bomb under the table, and we in the audience know it’s going to go off in fifteen minutes.  Now imagine one of the characters knows it as well, but can’t reveal it.  With this, the suspense ratchets to another level. Not only are we aware of the impending explosion, we share in the character’s anxiety to get away and the excruciating effort of acting totally unconcerned even as the bomb ticks down.  The emotional connection we have to a character for whom this situation is a matter of life or death makes the suspense we feel that much greater.”

Best Scary Movies of All-Time


Ever since I was a small child, I loved scary movies. I remember sneaking into the house and watching Siesta Cinema’s afternoon showing of War of the Worlds and then imaging that the light posts in our neighbourhood were alien spacecraft sent to destroy the earth.  I have not out grown my love of being scared by a great horror movie. 

Here are my favourite Scary Movies of  all-time:
