Ed's All-Time Favorite MoviesLast update and revision:August, 2024 475ox

Below is a list of my all-time favorite movies. It is sorted alphabetically by movie title. As of today, there are 210 movies listed.

As of December 2022, the list is brand new.I expect it to go through many edits and revisions over the next few months, as I add (and possibly remove) titles.

I don't have any special criteria as to how or why a movie makes the list. However, if I've seen a movie several times, that must almost certainly indicate it belongs on the list. (Otherwise, why would I bother to watch it so many times?) Likewise, if I've only seen a movie once, it almost certainly should not (yet) belong on this list.

Movies listed with an asterisk (*) in the second column indicate this movie is a Top 50 Favorite!

The current breakdown of movies by decade looks like this:

1950s 5 2.4%
1960s 14 6.7%
1970s 30 14.3%
1980s 68 32.4%
1990s 47 22.4%
2000s 36 17.1%
2010s 8 3.8%
2020s 2 1.0%
210 100.0%


The genre for each movie is the genre as designated from the Internet Movie Database website.
I'm not sure if I agree with all of their designations. For example...

...I don't consider Phantom of the Paradise to be a COMEDY.
...I don't consider Rounders to be CRIME.
...Silverado should almost certainly be listed as a WESTERN and not CRIME.
...I don't consider Private Lessons to be an ADULT film.
etc.

Here's the genre breakdown:

Action 75 13.7%
Adult 1 0.2%
Adventure 49 9.0%
Animation 1 0.2%
Biography 8 1.5%
Comedy 45 8.2%
Crime 62 11.4%
Documentary 0 0.0%
Drama 122 22.3%
Family 3 0.5%
Fantasy 9 1.6%
History 3 0.5%
Horror 11 2.0%
Music 3 0.5%
Musical 4 0.7%
Mystery 25 4.6%
Romance 29 5.3%
Science Fiction 18 3.3%
Sport 9 1.6%
Thriller 55 10.1%
War 4 0.7%
Western 10 1.8%
546 100.0%

Finally, here's the top 15 actors based upon the number of occurrences of each actor's name in the ACTOR column.

Tom Cruise 14

Morgan Freeman 7
Ed Harris 6
Mel Gibson 6
