The "Princess Bride" has to be our second favorite too.

Mine: "Sound of Music"--- probably have watched it more than 20X...plus, I have the dvd so I can watch it anytime I feel like it.

Meant to ask when I first read this. Did you catch the SOM reunion on Oprah, Thursday I think. All the kids, Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer. The show ended with the real Maria Von Trapp's great grandchildren, three girls and a boy, singing Edelweiss. What beautiful, beautiful voices.

Yes, I did watch (and recorded) that Oprah special on all the cast. I always wondered where and what they're doing now.

Oh My GOSH!!!!! I never meet anybody else who's ever seen Same Time Next Year----was scrolling thru here just in case but didn't think I'd see it....I think it's one of the best movies of the past several decades but most people have never even heard of it! The music is great, the storyline is fun.....just a feel-good movie for a lazy weekend afternoon. Highly recommended!!!

Oh, yes, I have seen it, too. Being a movie addict of well-made movies, this was one I liked also.
