My absolute favorite is 12 Angry Men. With so many people who like to play Judge, Juror, and Executor online whenever they hear a news report, I find that it holds up remarkably well today.

I don't have a favorite anything because I like things for different reasons, it could be Double Indemnity, it could be Rashomon, it could be Gojira, it could be Dr. Strangelove. I can't really chose.

Well, that's why Victim
was made in the UK.
