Captain Blood and Robin Hood (Errol Flynn can swash my buckle any time)
I Know Where I'm Going (an oldie with Wendy Hiller, romantic, wry and beautifully filmed in the Orkney Islands)
Jungle Book, The (Jason Scott Lee version, sumptuous and full of childlike wonder, with a scrappy heroine AND John Cleese for chuckles)
Last of the Mohicans (which, strangely enough, I did not love at first, but now watch every few months, and it gets better each time I see it)
Lawrence of Arabia (no romance or women, but who needs that with Peter O'Toole's intense blue eyes!)

ALL the Jane Eyres
Any silent film with Buster Keaton (he is the archetype of the misunderstood hero who finally triumphs against great odds)
The Astaire-Rogers films, esp. Gay Divorcee
