What Are 5 Movies You Will Always Watch on TV If You See They Are On ?
Casablanca ( I have seen in whole or part maybe a dozen times.
Ground Hog Day (A great movie , one who some people consider the greatest "spiritual" movie ever)
Goodfellas (Scorsese's masterpiece and maybe the best "directed" movie ever)
Rio Bravo (corny as hell but it gives you faith in humanity)
Patton ( I am a sucker for great WWII movies)

I would have to give a shout out also to Hombre with Paul Newman. A very quotable script from an Elmore Leonard story. It is also where my screen name John Russell comes from.
I would add just about all of Newman's movies.
It's almost impossible for me to make such a short list of movies I can watch again and again, but here are 5 of them in no particular order:
Casablanca
The Godfather
The Shawshank Redemption
Schindler's List
Pride and Prejudice, eitiher the version with Colin Firth or the one with Keira Knightley.
Give more than five if you want
Okay, here's another 5.
The American President
Field of Dreams
The Third Man
The Pelican Brief
The Life of Emile Zola
