Well, I don't know that I have a favorite. But I did think A Gathering of Old Menwas pretty interesting. And I thought it captured the look of the area and people and it sounded pretty close to the accents of the people in the area.

And it's been awhile since I've seen it but I think it also avoided going all one sided in it's narrative and at least tried to show different points of view.

It's your favorite movie from the state yet you don't even know the name of it. Nice.

An obscure one that not many people have seen "Casey's Shadow"
Favorite line from the movie "I'm going to Tahiti where the women don't wear no tops"

Damn. There are some good ones.

Winter's Bone was great. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. Paper Moon. The Outlaw Josey Wales. Waiting for Guffman. fricking Road House. Meet Me in St. Louis. Million Dollar Baby. The Exorcist.

Might have to go with Winter's Bone or Waiting for Guffman. I can't decide. Too different.

Forrest Gump, Big Fish, Crazy in Alabama, and My Cousin Vinnie are all excellent.
