The Scarlet Pimpernel

This is my favorite movie. Of all time. But if you see it, you might think I'm crazy. I mean, it has drama, romance, a period setting, sword fights, intrigue, betrayal, heroism, self-sacrifice, all that good stuff. But it's a made-for-TV movie, for goodness sake! The truth is, I saw it for the first time at age 9. I've seen it many many many times since then. It's impossible for me to see it objectively now.

When I showed it to my husband, at least he could finally understand why I kept saying "sink me!" every time I synced his palm pilot (you'll have to see it yourself to understand what I'm talking about). But when I showed it to another friend for her first time, I could just feel her rolling her eyes! Maybe I'll just keep my favorite movie to myself. :)
