Okay, I know this has sod all to with folk music, but what are your favourite films and why? Here's a list of mine to get things started. (in no particular order)

The Wicker Man (Robin Hardy, 1973) - the most thought-provoking, entertaining and downright scary film I'ver seen, with a demon of a folk soundtrack!

The Seventh Seal (Ingmar Bergman, 1957) - every time I watch it, I find things that I've missed on previous viewings

Love and Death (Woody Allen, 1975) - Still makes me wet myself laughing years after I first saw it.

Before Sunrise (Richard Linklater, 1995) - The wittiest and most heart-rending film about a bloke and a girl I've ever come across. I instantly fell in love with it when I saw it on the day it was released.

The Shining (Stanley Kubrick, 1980) - A horror film that manages to transcend the blood and gore of most post 60s horror films but still unsettle and terrify.

Moulin Rouge (Baz Luhrmann, 2000) - The last film I saw at the cinema that I came away from going "Wow!" A great contemporary musical with faultless performances across the board, a superb story and filmed with all the gimmickry of a pop video without the inanity.
