Favorite Film by Genre

[Lehnhart]

I thought this would be an interesting idea. This may be little cliche to some but...you have to get rid of all of your entire blu-ray collection. The catch is, you have to keep ONE film from each of the following genres. So obviously this won't be your overall top films ever but your favorite film, or the film you can't live without, from that specific category. It'll be difficult to only choose one film from each genre but should be pretty fun. Post away!

EDIT: You may add other ones if you choose (Sci-Fi, Thriller, Musical, War, Western, Comic Book, etc.)
