watch the IMDB.com Top 100 movies (read all 6 entries…)
I've seen a few more 2 years ago

FINALLY saw Shawshank Redemption. I liked it, but I can’t say it’s the best movie ever made. I think it’s a little over rated.

Lawrence of Arabia – One of the best biopics I’ve seen. I barely new anything about this man prior to watching the movie, but I was engrossed. I found the Middle Eastern theme to be somewhat timely, and very educational.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind – A fantastic concept, that I think they didn’t fully deliver on. Slightly over rated as well.

The Manchurian Candidate – The Frank Sinatra film I was worried about. It was actually very good. A thriller with an excellent and original idea. Very entertaining.

High Noon – The Western I was woried about watching. Also immensley entertaining. This may have been one of the deepest movies I’ve seen. About a man who gets abondoned by the town he once saved. It makes you think about society and you’re place in it. A movie that makes you think on a different level is a great movie in my book.

Annie Hall – Not a big Woddy Allen fan. He’s funny at times, but I usually find his movies a little dull. Overall not a bad movie though. I did laugh out loud once or twice.

Overall I’ve now seen 60 out of 100!! I have 3 or 4 more on my Tivo, City of God (Cidade de Deus) – a foreign film I never even heard, North by Northwest – would’ve been my third Hancock film in a month, but my cable screwed up Vertigo and Rear Window about halfway through., American History X – my middle brother (who has horrible taste in movies) told me this was a great movie. So of course I never watched it., TReeasure of the Sierra Madre – Bogie. Can’t wait to see this one, Mr Smith Goes to Washingotn – I love Jimmy Stewart. This is one of the few big movies e starred in that I haven’t sen. I like the rest of them, I have high hopes for thois one as well.



Comments:

I agree with everything, except . . .

Eternal Sunshine. I love that movie.

American History X

You should really give this one a try – I think it is very good and Ed Norton is an amazing actor. I have family members who have terrible taste in movies as well, but every once in awhile they come across a good one!
