6 років томуFor over 40 years, the Toronto International Film Festival has attracted some of the best filmmakers in the world to showcase the biggest films of the year. This year’s festival saw the release of Darren Aronofsky’s wildly controversial Mother! and the James Franco-directed The Disaster Artist. Past festival winners include La La Land, The Princess Bride, and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. While there this year, The A.V. Club took the chance to ask some of the festival’s biggest filmmakers a question: What is your all-time favorite movie?

After all the hype about Casablanca, I finally watched it. Meh. Then, after i forgot all the hype, I watched it a second time, and thought, "that's a good movie." Then, years later, I watched it a third time, and realized that it's on of the top ten movies ever made. It is as perfect as a film can get.
@everythingisawesome2903 2 роки тому
I just watched Casablanca few months ago and loved it instantly at first watch and now it has became one of my favourite movie of all time. Also loved the songs like "As time goes by" and "Knock on wood". Now I can finally see why people love it. 10/10 movie.
@grammargoddess888 2 роки тому
I sort of had the same thing with Singin' in the Rain. I watched it, liked it, but didn't quite understand all the hype. Then I watched it again sometime later (flipping channels, maybe), and kind of thought "Yeah, I sort of get it now". I have since seen it a couple more times and it just gets better each time for me. Such a paper thin script, nothing super serious, but just a nice, feelgood movie with some awesome song and dance numbers. I just love it. And I'm not even a musical person. :)
