I'd have some that are neglected by many. I'm thinking of smaller films like The Florida Project, but in particular Lars and the Real Girl.
Lars and the Real Girl is very deep... the top layer narrative is extremely touching and nourishing, but the deeper symbolism's are where I feel most at home with this story.
Lars and the Real Girl is quite rewarding.

I can't distinguish between best and favorite, but I do think I can defend my favorites as "best" too.
I think this is why the question can be most difficult to grapple with...
Personally, I have no issues with making steadfast claim(s) for the greatest films ever made... but my feelings get in the way of what my 'favorite films of all time' might be at any given moment because I am constantly changing... and so are my tastes.
Rarely are the two perfectly aligned... and yet I watch and enjoy the greatest list as if they were my favorites.
