I really liked it..I really did. I didn't even know he did this movie.CE and Cajunatah---I mean Jaws are very big on my list,too.


I do judge a movie in a technical way...without being a very technical movie person,but even more so I judge it on how much it moves me-----how much emotion it digs out of me; thus my inclusuion of this fine film.



I never heard of SK.

I have it on my to see list.

Stolen Kisses is Truffaut. It's a sequel to the 400 Blows. Part of four, or five depending on how you look at it, semi-autobiographical movies he made.

Is the Last Metro Deneuve and Depardieu?

Day for Night and Jules and Jim are terrific movies. Most of his stuff is great.

OK....I'm taking notes.

Yeah.

Wow, forgot about 400 Blows.

Did you ever see La Notte, the Antonioni film?

I was very tempted to put Horror of Dracula here. Those Christopher Lee/Hammer serial movies were to die for.

I haven't seen much Antonioni. The Passenger and Blow Up and one of his supposed classics which I barely remember.

Hard Times and Mean Streets are great off the track movies.



Maybe there should be a T-10 for off the main trackers.

I am inspired to do so.


I'll come up wth mine later.

Best Tom Hanks Movie...


Turner and Hooch

Best Picture.........
 

I've only seen 3 of the 5 films up for Best Picture. "There Will Be Blood" and "Atonement" are the ones I've yet to see. The class of the other three films to me is "No Country For Old Men". The film is laden with suspense, the performances are incredible from top to bottom. First rate screenplay, beautiful cinematography, and amazing direction. Another masterpiece from Joel and Ethan Coen, who were IMO deserving of the award for for top film in 1996 for "Fargo". It took home awards for original screenplay, and Best Actress for wonderful work from Frances McDormand as the very pregnant police chief on the trail of 2 cop killers. However, it lost Best Picture to "The English Patient" a fine film as well, but no the classic that "Fargo" was. So, in my opinion the Coen brothers and "No Country For Old Men" deserve to recognition in several categories, and I feel that will happen. Still you never know, maybe some upsets will occur. I'd rank "Michael Clayton" next best of the films I've seen this past year.
My list in no order, just off the top of my head here are a few favorite films.
Godfather I and II(2 being the more brilliant)
Fargo
Raging Bull(Best sports film ever)
The Departed(Academy got it right last year)
Crash(And the year before, with the brillant Paul Haggis film)
Do The Right Thing (Spike Lee's most brilliant film)
Apocalypse Now
One False Move( brilliant film directed by Carl Franklin, Billy Bob Thorton is in it, and co-wrote the screenplay.
Mystic River
I could go, on and on, but I'll stop.:D

Agreed. Mean Streets is obviously a classic ( " what's a mook " ) and Charles Bronson as the bare knuckle boxer in Hard Times is excellent.

It was hard to leave these off my T-10.

Yeah I haven't seen all of them..... just a few.

Il Deserto Rosso was good.

Good cast.

One False Move!

I love that movie.

Scrooge with Allistair Sims..???..can't quite bring up the name....was very close for mine as well.

I really hated Saving Private Ryan

the Americans all died horrible and the Germans only died while trying to surrender.

Morty, have you seen " One False Move? "

If not.......get it. It's tremendous.

Have not...adding to the list.
