39 The Towering Inferno 1975 - Estimated Admissions 11.78m
Given the amount of arguing between Steve McQueen and Paul Newman, about who was the real star of the show, it could be called 'The Towering Egos', but the disaster movie is still the pinnacle of Irwin Allen's career. The scene of this disaster is a 130-storey building, a vertical Titanic which peers over the skyline of San Francisco. When it is engulfed by fire, Newman's compromised architect must wrestle with his pride, whilst McQueen's heroic fireman fights the flames from below. Along the way a cast of stars are thrown onto the barbaque. The budget was so big that it required funds from both Twentieth Century Fox and Warner Brothers, but the film was a huge success.

38 Random Harvest 1943 - Estimated Admissions 12m
This Greer Garson weepie, one of the biggest tear-jerkers of the 1940s, also stars Ronald Colman as the shell-shocked, amnesia-stricken World War I soldier who gets out of the asylum, and meets and marries actress Greer. However, just when they are making a life for themselves his amnesia returns and all memory of his present life is wiped out. It uses every cliché in the book but to genuinely emotional, rather than sentimental, effect, throwing a few surprises into the story along the way. Hankies will be a definite requirement.

36 Doctor In The House 1954 - Estimated Admissions 12.2m
The first of the long-running "Doctor" series based on the books by Richard Gordon, which spawned a further six sequels and a television series. Dirk Bogarde plays Simon Sparrow, a newly arrived medical student at St Swithin's hospital in London, who falls in with three longer-serving hopefuls and is soon immersed in the wooing, drinking and fast sports-car driving that constitute 1950's medical training. There is, however, the looming and formidable figure of chief surgeon Sir Lancelot Spratt to remind them of their real purpose.
