Some less obvious films I really like:
Atomic Cafe (doc on the Cold War) They All Laughed (Bogdanovich's NYC in the early 80's) A Midnight Clear Mountains of the Moon Any film by Whit Stillman Costa Brava (circa 2000 indie film from Catalunya) My Man Godfrey Johnny Stecchino The Gods Must be Crazy |

I love They All Laughed. Really underrated homage to the screwball comedy. John Ritter, Audrey Hepburn (her last film), Ben Gazara and Dorothy Stratten (also her last film). Dorothy looked absolutely luminous. I think she would have been a huge star. She had real screen presence, and she was very serious about her craft.
Peter Bogdanovich is somebody I'd really like to meet. His encyclopedic knowledge of film is pretty much legendary at this point. Also, What's Up, Doc?, Paper Moon and The Last Picture Show rank among the finest American films of the 1970s. Quote:

I love the movie, The Game with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn.
Just be sure to pay attention, as there is a lot going on in the movie.

There's a bunch of Coen brother's movies I like; too many to name.
A better than I expected somewhat recent movie (not Coen) is "Hacksaw Ridge" |

worked in video rental store from 86-06
At the movie rental business I worked at, my fathers, we specialized in older and odd/rare titles. Our inventory had almost 20k different titles.
Some of my favorite, I like horror, sci-fi and ones where the bad guy wins. Brain Dead, mind bending Bill Pullman film. Fallen, Denzel at his best. Altered States, William Hurt masterpiece. Falling Down, Michael Douglas portraying how all people have felt at one time. Soylent Green, the great Charlton Heston, referencing women as furniture. Wow has time changed. All-Time favorite horror/gore/comedy...guy straps a lawnmower to his chest and walks through a room of undead. Brilliant and hilarious scene. Dead Alive |

On break for the holidays, had to order up The Big Country to watch again. Western, but much bigger than "just" a western.
Thought Hacksaw Ridge was phenomenal, really liked Dunkirk. My friends keep telling me to see Thor, it's not just a silly comic book movie, supposedly really funny, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. If you're ever in the mood for dumb/funny/action, you can't beat Big Trouble in Little China! |

Somehow this one snuck by me for a few years, but I saw "The Book Thief" a few days ago. The young lady in the lead role (Sophie Nelisse) was absolutely wonderful. A ten hanky ending for me I'm afraid, but still thought it a beautiful film.
