the sentimental favorite for me is the film, Gunga Din... I must must have watched it two dozen times... that's when I lost count.
the new York station WWOR had Million Dollar Movie... which showed a single film all week long... and Gunga Din was one of their stock movies.   

I read the Hornblower series years ago & have to say the the A & E series of early Hornblower films is well done and lots of fun to watch. Any film with a tall ship in it is a winner for me... LOL
