Pre-Oscar movie chit chat

[my miss storm cat]

Nice list, GB.

Yeah, I'd agree about Godfather III.

Best film in the past year, The Kite Runner

Top ten off the top of my head.....

La Strada (Fellini's masterpiece)
The Boys in the Band (best dialogue EVER... Mart Crowley, from his play)
Ball of Fire (favorite screwball comedy)
Strangers on a Train (favorite Hitchcock)
8 and a half (another Fellini)
Die Xue Jie Tou (A Bullet in the Head) (John Woo directed)
Godfather II (Nuf said)
You Can't Take it With You (fantastic writing)
Wings of Desire (Wim Wenders.... maybe a little dated now but still... stunning)
The English Patient (sweeping shots, great music, nothing is what it seems, the only movie i ever liked better than the book)
