If I were forced to choose an all-time favorite film, it might well be The Maltese Falcon. From the compelling story to the fabulous characters to the gorgeous black-and-white photography, the movie is a complete pleasure to me. I'm not saying it's perfect, but, for me, it's perfectly entertaining.
I think it also rates so highly to me because I've loved it forever. I don't remember ever seeing it for the first time--it's always been in my life. I figure I've seen it at least 20 times! As much as I adore many new films, a film that's been with me my whole life holds a special place.
I, too, love almost everything about this movie. I could watch it 3 times a year.
