I can’t say I had a favorite. Lots of movies left an impression on me.
I remember watching Dumbo for the first time on tv. I had my first baby and cried when the song was sung.
Later, when my daughter was a little older and I could read to her, I read the book, Are You My Mother? I couldn’t get through it the first time. I started to cry. I lost my mother when I was a little girl and I always missed her and these moments snuck up on me.

There were so many movies I loved as a child in the 1950s and as a teenager in the 1960s that I still love now:
Carousel with Shirley Jones and Gordon MacCrae
Auntie Mame with Rosalind Russell
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Shane
The Magnificent Seven (the original; the one with the real men in it)
Bus Stop
The Prince and the Showgirl
The Ten Commandments
Samson and Delilah with Victor Mature and Hedy Lamarr
Around the World in 80 Days
I could keep going but, I don't want to bore anyone!

My all-time favorite is Disney's "Lady and the Tramp". I believe that is why my favorite dog is a Cocker Spaniel.😄
I get almost as excited while watching "Lady and the Tramp" today, as I did all those years ago. The infamous spaghetti scene in the restaurant, stole my heart.😊
My second favorite is "Willie Wonka & the Chocolate Factory". I'd never seen that much pretty "candy" in my life, and so wanted to dive head first into the chocolate water. The cinematography was absolutely amazing!!😁
~~~All we need is LOVE💖

I first fell in love with vintage films flickering across our TV screen as a child.
I remember "Meet Me in St. Louis" made a huge impression on me-- Vincente Minelli's color-saturated, fanciful vision of family life in the turn of the century Midwest. Judy Garland was fabulous, warbling the 'Trolley Song", or exhorting her little sister Margaret O'Brien, through tears, to "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"....

Oh, I love the three that catter listed (especially "Parent Trap")!

Alicedee, I also loved "Darby O'Gill and the Little People."
There's a song the young woman sings that stays in my mind endlessly. I thoroughly enjoy remembering that sprightly tune!

Shelbelle, Shirley Temple movies were so very wonderful!

Pezzie, I agree that Hayley Mills was in a far superior version of "Parent Trap."
