I was talking about the new one with Patrick Stewart as King. You must be talking about the old one.

Yup, I love the old one. Hadn't heard of a new one actually. I cannot quite see Patrick Stewart managing to do as well as Peter O'Toole.

He actually did a good job, you might want to rent it someday. (Glen Close did an EXCELLENT job as Elenor of Aquitaine)

Ok, will look for it, if only to compare. I am more interested in the cinematography as I think it is stunning in the original.

Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn)- Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker (Johnny Depp)- Cry-baby (such a cheesy film I can't help but love it).
Jason Dean (Christian Slater)- Heathers. (I like the Veronica character too but she doesn't make my favourite list because she claim to not know what JD was planning which either makes her very stupid or a liar).
Scarlett O'Hara  (Vivien Leigh)- Gone with the wind.
Joel Barish (Jim Carrey) and Clementine Kruczynski (Kate Winslet)- Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind.


I'm sure I'll think of more favourites later, but that's it for now.
