Being an Indian I have lot of choice to watch movies. Bollywood (Indian film industry) releases movies just like Indian population growth. That means there are hardly some good movies I can expect in many months. So my interest goes towards Hollywood, I am a great Hollywood movies fan.

In Hollywood there are many great talented artists. It will be very difficult for me to name of of them. I like them for how well they have done for the movie and there are so many movies I have liked. But still below is my all time favorite movie list.

Schindler’s List

Schindler’s List is a 1993 biographical film directed by Steven Spielberg, telling the story of Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who saved the lives of over one thousand Polish Jews during the Holocaust. It was based on the book Schindler’s Ark by Thomas Keneally, and starred Liam Neeson as Schindler, Ralph Fiennes as the SS officer Amon Göth, and Ben Kingsley as Schindler’s accountant Itzhak Stern.

The Shawshank Redemption

The Shawshank Redemption is a 1994 drama film, written and directed by Frank Darabont, based on the Stephen King novella, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. The film stars Tim Robbins as Andy Dufresne and Morgan Freeman as Ellis Boyd “Red” Redding.

The Godfather

The Godfather is an Academy Award-winning 1972 crime film based on the novel of the same name by Mario Puzo and directed by Francis Ford Coppola, with screenplay by Puzo and Coppola. The film stars Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton and James Caan. The story spans ten years from 1945 to 1955 and chronicles the Corleone crime family.

Saving Private Ryan

It’s a great film to start with, and sitting in a room surrounded by five speakers with bullets flying from all directions around you - as in that spectacular 22- minute opening scene or in the final 45 minutes of action against the Germans in tanks - is an astounding movie experience. The sound in this film elevates it even higher.

The visuals are outstanding, too. I’ve never seen so many grays, beiges and olive-greens look this good: perfect colors for the bombed-out French city where the last hour takes place, perfect for the faces and uniforms of the gritty soldiers, for the machinery, the smoke-filled skies, etc.

Million Dollar Baby

The film stars Clint Eastwood, Hilary Swank, and Morgan Freeman. It is the story of an under-appreciated boxing trainer, his elusive past and his quest for atonement in helping an underdog amateur female boxer (the film’s title character) achieve her fragile dream of becoming a professional. The film won four Academy Awards, including Best Picture.
