Happiness
Sin City
American Beauty
The Untouchables
THe Apartment
I’m a real big fan of all Gus Van Saint flicks
or Richard LInklater
A Clockwork Orange was magnificent because it stayed in my thoughts days after I saw it. IMO, that’s a real effective, and powerful movie. Rarely do movies do this to me.
Artificial Intelligence was another one of these movies, strangely enough, it was based off of a story that Kubrick (A Clockwork orange) though of.
I’ll add another to my list.
Dumb and Dumber
Good Will Hunting
What Dreams may come
Shawshank redemption
Willy Wonka And the Chocolate factory (The good, Gene wilder one)
O brother where art thou
Rocky 1
Saving Private Ryan
300(Im greek, it has to be there)
Forest Gump
Ill stop at 9 due to a inability to choose a 10th favorite out of so many good ones, but most of the movies i listed are just beautiful, philosophical and/or down right inspiring.
