DAILY PROMPT RESPONSE

I’ve watched thousands of hours of video content throughout my lifetime, so it would be difficult to compile a list of my favorite movies. If I’m honest, the list changes from time to time. I get into moods where I watch a particular genre until I run out of movies. So, I will list a few movies that stand out.

The first five films on my list feature the legend of Sidney Poitier, and I’m a definite fan of the legend. My personal favorite is The Simple Life of Noah Dearborn. It wasn’t one of his many masterpieces, but its message is refreshing.

• Blackboard Jungle (1955)
• Defiant Ones (1958)
• In the Heat of the Night (1967)
• Piece of the Action (1977)
• Simple Life of Noah Dearborn (1999)

These next five aren’t in any order, but I enjoy them each time I watch them. I don’t have a particular reason; I just like them.

• Bait (2012)
• The Conversation (1973)
• King Arthur (2004)
• The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
• The Green Mile (1999)

These are some of the films that come to mind immediately. I’m sure if I thought about them a little longer, I could come up with a proper list and reasons for each film.

Here are some honorable mentions:

• Cool Hand Luke (1967)
• The Jacket (2005)
• Silverado (1985)
• The Natural (1984)
• The Way of the Gun (2000)

Well, here is my list. Perhaps you have seen some of these and enjoyed them. There are maybe some you want to check out.
