10. It is a spectacular movie.
I am not a big movie person, but I have watched that movie several times (I still leave the room when the young man gets killed off by the warden, though--I think that is the most heartbreaking scene in movie history).

Also, I learned recently that "the tree" is about twenty minutes from where I live. It's at Malabar Farm made famous by American author and farmer Louis Bromfield.
