Your favorite birth year movie

This should be fun - just enter your birth year in place of the "XXXX" below and pick the move you like best from the list.


Fun, but not easy - 1962 was a heck of a year for films! I narrowed my picks down to a short list:

To Kill a Mockingbird
Lawrence of Arabia
The Longest Day
The Manchurian Candidate
The Miracle Worker

I'll have to give the nod to To Kill a Mockingbird



Booby Prize: The Three Stooges in Orbit
 
I opted to just go with one American film from 1951

1967 for me and it would have to be The Jungle Book by Walt Disney Productions. This film has a special memory for me as it was the last one I saw with my Father before he passed away when I was ten years old. We saw it together at the Plaza Cinema in Truro, Cornwall in about 1975. I watched it with my own daughter many years later and she loved it just as much as I.

That was my first movie in a theater!!

Not my favourite, but opened the door for ambiguity with both 1974 and 2000 versions:

Gone in 60 Seconds
 
I am 1969 too. I can’t decide between Butch and Sundance or Paint Your Wagon. Both have their moments. I suppose Butch Cassidy didn’t have Clint Eastwood singing “I Talk To The Trees”, but is that a virtue or a failing?
I forgot to add Frosty the Snowman and A Boy Named Charlie Brown. I still watch those with my daughter!
