Claudia Ciesla: The movies I loved growing up

The German model-turned-starlet lists her pick of flicks...

Titanic: My mom took me and my sister to the cinema hall to watch this movie. I couldn't stop crying during the climax. James Cameron's film had everything in itu00a0--u00a0 a love story, humour and great action scenes.

Home Alone/Lost in New York: Every year, my family would sit together and watch the movie during Christmas. There are a few movies that can be described as never having a dull moment, and Home Alone fits in this small group. It's the perfect family holiday film.

Erin Brockovich: The title itself sounds so strong, tough, stubborn and sexy. I enjoyed (and still do!) Julia Roberts' performance.u00a0 She is the hero of the movie.u00a0... I used to watch the film every day.

The Godfather: I was completely in awe of the movie. It's scary, intelligent, funny as well as touching. The Godfather is a prime example of the way cinema should be: excellent telling of complete stories.u00a0 This film is a must- see. The collection should be available in every house.

Romeo and Juliet: I read the book, saw it in the theatre and watched the movie in the cinema. And this movie does an excellent job of combining Shakespearean dialogue with modern imagery.
