Donkey Skin (French: Peau d'Âne; also known in English as Once Upon a Time and The Magic Donkey) by Jacques Demy.

Based on "Donkeyskin", a 1695 fairy tale by Charles Perrault.

This film has the gentle magic and unforgettable images of the classical fairy tales.

The Three Musketeers (also known as The Three Musketeers (The Queen's Diamonds)) by Richard Lester.

Based on the novel by Alexandre Dumas.

Along with the 1993 adaptation and Randall Wallace's The Man in the Iron Mask, this is definitely one of my favorite versions of the musketeers.

A beautiful adventure film with smart and quick comedic energy.

Momo the Monster, also known as the Missouri Monster (Momo).

Strange and other-worldly creatures have been spotted all over the United States... but were these sightings real? Or the imagination run wild?

In 1972, residents of Louisiana, Missouri claimed to have seen a creature they described as being 7 ft, having a large pumpkin shaped head, thick black fur covering most of its body that emitted a putrid odor, and the only facial feature noticeable were its large glowing orange eyes. At one point, a 20-person posse got together to hunt down the monster, but never found it. Later on, though, tracks were discovered and submitted to Lawrence Curtis, director of the Oklahoma City Zoo who deemed the tracks to be that of an unknown primate species.

So what could it have been? A monster or an ape?

War of the Worlds (2005) by Steven Spielberg.

I love Spielberg's adaptation of War of the Worlds.

It's a remarkable film, and one of Spielberg's great dream films, in the way that sometimes you'll have a dream, and it will start out meaning one thing, but by the end it will mean something else.

Some of you have probably wondered "Where did the Easter Bunny come from and why does a rabbit give out eggs?"

The exact origins of the Easter Bunny are unclear, but it's believed to have originated in Germany during the Middle Ages. The tradition probably stems from the pagan festival of "Ēostre", which honored the goddess of the same name and was celebrated during the spring equinox in the form of feasting and fertility rituals. Ēostre was eventually co-opted by Christians and it was rebranded as a celebration of Jesus's rebirth.

Following this theme of new life, rabbits and hares (which have long been seen as symbols of fertility and new life, as they often give birth to large litters in the spring) became the holiday mascot. And as early as 1682, it became a tradition for the "Easter Hare" to make the rounds and judge whether children were good or bad, similar to Kris Kindle. If they were good, they'd be given gifts like toys and colored eggs, eggs being another symbol of new life. German immigrants brought the tradition to the United States in the 18th century, where it became popularized and eventually spread to other parts of the world.
