i'll be going with Sword and the Dragon

This is a tough one. I'll go with The King And Four Queens.

A lot of good movies released in 1956.

The Killing.

^yeah this was a good year, i try to do years that arent talked about a lot (for example 39, 74, 94 would be boring) or not do a year where most would pick the same movie.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters - the film that started my love affair with the Big G.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)

(Although there are a lot of close runners-up)

The Harder They Fall

Actually, Gojira was released in 1954.

It was Godzilla, the dubbed, Americanized version re-edited with footage of Raymond Burr that was released in 1956.

'Bob le Flambeur'.

Good year though, a number of films came to mind.

Brain wasn't thinking when I saw it listed, but you're def right. It was the U.S. version that got me going on that kick.

This was my second pick, along with Creature Walks Among Us

A toss-up between The Bad Seed and Written on the Wind.

I'm going to go for Giant. It's a little bit cheesy and melodramatic, but I love it any way.

This one is so easy for me, I don't even have to think about it (mostly because it was the year I was born, so deciding on my favorite film for that year is something that happened a long time ago ).

Forbidden Planet, hands down.

Forbidden Planet was probably the very first sci-fi movie I ever saw and thus, kick-started my love for that movie genre.

A Man Escaped or: The Wind Bloweth Where It Listeth

The Man Who Knew too Much

Good year. I'll call The Searchers since it's so iconic (and just AWESOME in HD), but Body Snatchers is a really close second.

The Searchers easily. But I'll put down The Girl Can't Help It for best comedy.

i guess THE KILLING...but that was a tough choice.

You'd have to see Back From Eternity with the great Rod Steiger. You want to talk about inspirational pictures....about personal sacrifice, integrity, and redemption. The film left me with a lump in my throat.

When, I say WHEN, will this great picture be available on DVD?? Geesh!

My personal favorite movie from 1956 is the bad girl classic OVER-EXPOSED starring Cleo Moore which was released on DVD by Sony earlier this year.

Runnerups would be three other blonde bombshell vehicles: BUS STOP starring Marilyn Monroe, THE GIRL CAN'T HELP IT with Jayne Mansfield, and BABY DOLL with Carroll Baker.

The Killing

The Killing has gotta be my fav Kubrick, i'm a sucker for heist noirs.
