Mine are:

Steel Magnolias - when I need a good cry
Out of Africa - I love it, always have, always will
and favorite holiday film: White Christmas - Danny Kaye and Bing Crosby - Snow, snow, snow, snow!!!

We went to New Moon last night. It was pretty good, but I liked Twilight more. Still worth seeing though.

I haven't followed the series, but I heard that New Moon wasn't as good. I have to get these books and start to read the series. I love vampires anyway, so I don't know why I have waited so long.
I saw an interview with the author and she had an amazing story to tell.

Memiors of a Geisha- loved the love story
A Christmas Carol
The Thorn Birds- although only a TV miniseries-loved it-Catholic church got their drawers in an uproar- when it was only a movie
Ghost
The Sixth Sense
Grease

In the book it was because he was realizing just how much danger he felt he was putting Bella in.

All 3 of my kids and I disagree with the movie reviews here. We saw New Moon last night---along with about 1,000 screaming hormonal teenage girls. All 4 of us have read all the books and agree that New Moon was MUCH better than Twilight. I was so disappointed after seeing Twilight that I wasn't sure I was going to even see New Moon. I was pleasantly surprised. New Moon follows the book much more than Twilight did.
Just a warning, beware of the hormonal teenage girls in the theater. In most of the scenes there is a shirtless well built teenage boy...this makes all the girls in the theater cat call and scream and yell and etc. We did have fun making fun of them, but it was annoying.
Also at one point Edward is in pain and my son leans over and says, "why doesn't he just use the crucio curse?" LOL I thought I was going to pee my pants I was laughing so hard. Gotta love my kids!
