We have a view!
Considering all of my favorite movies -- ones I've seen in the theater and ones I've only seen on a television -- there are two I feel like seeing right at this moment: A Room with a View and The Godfather II. Since, I'm pretty sure that when Ben answers this question, he's also going to say The Godfather II (and I figure I could just go to his movie with him), I'll pick A Room with a View.
A Room with a View happens to be one of my favorite movies, and one that I can't remember seeing in a theater. My mom may have taken me, but I don't remember. I doubt it because I remember the year that it won all of its Academy Awards, I was annoyed since I
didn't even know what it was at the time -- 1985.
And, I figure I was pissed because it was the same year that Back to the Future came out and I didn't want any other movie taking BTTF's glory.
Which makes me wonder: should I just pick Back to the Future as the movie I want to see in the theater? It was the first film I saw more than once on the big screen and it's probably higher on my favorites list than A Room with a View.

A Room With A View is an awesome film. But you know, the book is outstanding! Really! E.M. Forster is the master of Romantic-Comedy Fiction (if there is such a thing). The film is very faithful to the book, too. You will laugh till you cry!!
