There are far more than just 5, but my top five personally would be:
1/Masada (I fell in love with Silva!)
2/How to Steal a Million
3/My Favourite Year
4/Rogue Male
5/The Stuntman
There are others I could add: Powerplay, Lord Jim, The Lion in Winter hell, I even enjoy Svengali (although it does falter in the second half).

Thank you. Before "The Ruling Class" I wasn't aware that Peter could sing and dance.
O you're a villain alright, just not a super-one! What's the difference? Presentation!

Hachmom: I agree with 80% of your list. I would replace Masada with Rogue Male. Thanks.

He was very good in his last movie role too,
Katherine of Alexandria
, aka
Decline of an Empire
. Thing is, instead of releasing in the theatres or even as a television movie, they decided to send it
STRAIGHT
to DVD, which I think sucks, because it was a good movie!!!
Anyhow, it was released on DVD just this week, & you can order it online at Amazon.com
If you love Mary and Jesus Christ and are 100% proud of it, copy2000 this and make your signature!

Ruling Class (remarkable!!)
Uncle Silas (creepy!)
Lawrence of Arabia
Stunt Man
Good bye Mr. Chips (it's nice to see O'toole do a little LESS O'Toole here)
and some runner ups
Lion in Winter is fantastic
Murphy's War is a little gem too. Co-stars his wife.
My Favorite Year too.

There are too many, but I'll go with "Lawrence of Arabia", "Venus", "The Lion in Winter", "Becket" and TV's "The Dark Angel". The first 4 are rather obvious choices, the last pick is slightly more original-
