It's hard to choose only 3 - I love at least a thousand of them!
But the ones that come to the surface are these:
The Sound of Music (love the music and culture - even visited Austria to see the palace)
Pride and Prejudice (Sir Lawrence Olivier)
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (Steven Spielberg)

Didn't read the book.
Usually the book is much better, difficult job being a screenwriter. Charles Frazier's Cold Mountain is a example, IMO.
Given the narrative of a boy trying to get back to his sweetheart, as spoken by the girl, I thought the screenwriter did an excellent job.
One of my favorite novels.

Read the book twice, a favorite for sure. Movie wasn't awful, it just didn't possess, in my mind, the same complexity of Frazier's writing that I so enjoyed.

I Can't say I liked the movie but I cried my eyes out when I saw"Love me tender " with Elvis Presley '' die in it.
Some of the best films I ever saw were foreign films as opposed to Hollywood's. I can't remember all the names, but I mentioned Das Boot and there is another German film about mountain climbers stuck on a ledge. There was a South Korean film I liked too about the Korean War. Another good German film I saw was about German troops in WWII being abandoned in Russia as the Russians advanced.

Speaking of Steve McQueen, I rather liked that (original) version of The Magnificent Seven.
