This was harder for me too. My original thought was "If These Walls Could Talk," the HBO original about abortion because that was a very influential film for me... But I imagined the comments that would be made and the potential debate over the issue that could happen, and I decided to choose another one! I could think of many movies that I liked or that moved me but none (even ITWCT) that had the same kind of effect on me that CDs or books have. I thought about The Princess Bride. What a great film. But not particularly influential. That got me to thinking about Christopher Guest. And then I thought of Guffman. And I love that movie. So even if I can't specifically say why it's influential, I decided to list it. If nothing else, it's a forum for me to shout "Buy the DVD! Watch the deleted scenes. Think of me laughing out loud *every time* I watch the "Corky and the sperm whale" one."
