This list includes my favorite actresses who I view to be beautiful, charming, and interesting.  It is arranged by birthdate and I have also noted some of the actresses' most memorable roles, or at least where I saw them.

A chronological listing of some of the better movies that I've seen that could be labeled Film Noir.

Humphrey Bogart, Bette Davis, and Leslie Howard in The Petrified Forest (1936)

This list includes my favorite actors who I view to be cool, talented, and effective. It is arranged by birthdate and I have also noted some of the actors' most memorable roles, or at least where I saw them.

Some Westerns with my ratings noted.  My ratings might be a little low on some of these -- you may see more value in them than me, it really is subjective.  The great thing about westerns is that they at least feature great soothing scenery.  Despite some of my low ratings I am a fan of the genre, though few westerns rise to the status of great films in my mind, but that's not to say they're not worth watching.

Olivia de Havilland and Errol Flynn in They Died with Their Boots On (1941)

This is a list of musicals that I've seen.

Julie Andrews, Christopher Plummer, Charmian Carr, Angela Cartwright, Duane Chase, Nicholas Hammond, Kym Karath, Heather Menzies-Urich, and Debbie Turner in The Sound of Music (1965)

A listing of the Sophia Loren films that I've seen ranked from best to worst with my ratings noted.

A listing of the Penelope Cruz films that I've seen ranked from best to worst with my ratings included.

Penélope Cruz, Antonio Resines, and Jorge Sanz in The Girl of Your Dreams (1998)

As I am perplexed by much of what is on IMDB's Top 250 movie list, I felt compelled to compile my own Top 250 movie list.  So here it is, my list (in order) of what I consider to be the best 250 movies of all genres.

(Note: I have expanded the list to 365 titles so you could theoretically watch one a day for a year.)

Daniel Day-Lewis in The Last of the Mohicans (1992)

War films that I've seen in no particular order.

Fernanda Montenegro and Vinícius de Oliveira in Central Station (1998)

These are the fifty best TV series from all genres in my opinion.

Disappointing:  didn't live up to the hype

This list includes movies which are chiefly focused on art and the creative process involved in producing it regardless of medium.

Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant in Music and Lyrics (2007)

This list features classic films from the years 1934-1966.  Some are black and white, some are in color, but all are good or worth watching in my opinion.  Loosely arranged by actor or actress.  I think it's a nice starting point for people unfamiliar with older films.

Charles Laughton, Fredric March, and Norma Shearer in The Barretts of Wimpole Street (1934)

Leslie Nielsen, George Kennedy, Ricardo Montalban, Priscilla Presley, O.J. Simpson, Jeannette Charles, Reggie Jackson, and Nancy Marchand in The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988)
