It's A Wonderful Life

Posted
-- Citizen Kane (well, d'uh, put yourself back in that time and imagine how revolutionary that movie must've been)

-- Angry 12 Men (for a film that had no action, what a gripping story)

 

-----

 

some honorable mentions:

-- Aliens (might be Cameron's best action movie ... and no haven't seen Avatar, but the cranked intensity that runs through 2 is remarkable)

-- Children Of Men (apocalyptic brilliance)

I agree with these ones you've mentioned. 12 Angry Men is brilliant, and Fonda was great in it. I love how you have to put together the murder scene using the same tools and thought processes that the jurors used, pure brilliance. This is another reason why I loved Rear Window, because you only have one vantage point throughout the film and you have to try and piece everything together using only what Jimmy Stewart can see, hear, and figure out. Citizen Kane was also great, somehow gaining that type of budget as a first time director and developing that end product was Orson Welles at his best. I couldn't imagine seeing that in the 40s, it had to of blown people's minds. I think Children of Men was a highly underrated film. The story was great, the scenes were intense, and that final continuous shot with no cuts was unbelievable. It made it extremely intense, and you really felt as if you were there.

 

Some other ones that I saw on other lists that I also enjoyed:

-Jacob's Ladder (f-ed up movie, the scene where he's on the stretcher being pushed through the mental hospital was nuts)

-Requiem for a Dream (Aronofsky did a great job, I have yet to see the Fountain but I hear it's awesome)

-American Beauty (loved Kevin Spacey in the role, interesting movie)

-Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2 (I thought they were both great)

-The Shining (anything Kubrick does is brilliant, and this is no exception)

-Shaun of the Dead (this will always be one of my favorite zombie movies)

 

Thanks for the lists everyone, it's cool to see where other's interests are.

By any chance did you buy them from a guy wielding a baseball bat (with no glove), a large bag of candy and a gun?

Actually the guy you're speaking of has asked me to "film" these movies for him using a hand-held video camera.

 

Waitaminute... you know this guy too? :rolleyes:
