I have a real weakness for Preston Sturges, so it was a close-run thing which of his movies made it on here...

Same here but Sullivan's Travels really is my favorite. I LOVED that they used it in the movie Grand Canyon. It is truly an underrated movie that deserves so much more attention. And Joel McCrea was INCREDIBLE in it. He never got the attention he deserved either! :(
