Yes. I believe I have every movie she's ever done.
If I had to pick a favorite I think it would be " Let's make love"
Her best musical is " Gentlemen prefer Blonds" Best number " Diamonds are a girls best friend, followed up by the little dance number she does at the French cafe.....
Her draw to me is her lovely optimism/s.

Have you heard T-Bone Burnett's version of it? Awesome.

Some Sean Connery flick, 'Finding Forrester'.
Anyone else watch this one?

I saw it a few years ago.
It was kind of a take-off on JD Salinger as I remember.
I read "Catcher in the Rye" in High School.
It was about obnoxious prep school boys.
I watched it mainly because I like Sean Connery.
My favorite movie of his is "Robin and Marion" with him and Audry Hepburn as Maid Marion.
It's really a classic IMO.

If you want to see his weirdest movie, check out "The Bed-Sitting Room". It used to be on YouTube for free but I can't find any that aren't behind a pay wall now.

I don't know anything about this Lester Dude, but Robin and Marion definitely had some subtle dark comedy to it. That's why I liked it.
