20 The Bells Of St.Mary's 1946 - Estimated Admissions 15.2m
The sequel to Going My Way, in which Bing Crosby reprises his Oscar winning performance as unconventional priest Father O’Malley. This time he is sent to St. Mary's, a run-down parochial school on the verge of condemnation. He and Sister Benedict (Ingrid Bergman) work together in an attempt to save the school, though their differing methods often lead to good-natured disagreements. It is dripping with sentiment but who cares when you've got Bergman as a singing nun?

19 The Lord Of The Rings The Return Of The King 2003 - Estimated Admissions 15.22m
The final part of Peter Jackson's fantasy trilogy climaxes with a colossal bodycount and acts of courage in the face of insurmountable odds. It takes a while for the dust to settle from the Two Towers. Once it gets going, Return Of The King powers on to its numerous epilogues intercutting awesome spectacle with moving moments.

18 Thunderball 1966 - Estimated Admissions 15.6m
The James Bond franchise went gadget mad in Sean Connery fourth outing as the MI6 agent. Nuclear weapons have been stolen in order that Spectre can hold the world to randsom and it's up to Bond save the day. The film is reputedly Connery's own personal favourite during his time as Bond, maybe because the jetpack 007 uses at the beginning of Thunderball really worked and was not a stunt. Thunderball is also the only Bond film, so far, in which we see all of the 00 agents in one shot. They are all summonded to M's briefing, 007 enters the room last and sits in the seventh chair from the left.

16 Lord Of The Rings The Fellowship Of The Ring 2001 - Estimated Admissions 15.98m
Peter Jackson's skilful adaptation of JRR Tolkien's epic treats the reviled fantasy genre with reverence. When the evil ring of the dark lord Sauron finds its way into the hands of the hobbit Frodo, a Fellowship is created to destroy it and save Middle-earth.

Jackon went against the wishes of Miramax, who wanted the Tolkien's trilogy to be compressed into one long movie, audiences flocked to see it and Orlando Bloom, Viggo Mortensen and Elijah Wood became major Hollywood stars.
