David In Indy:
Thanks for reminding me about Gone With The Wind Dev! I can't believe I forgot about that one! Definately one of my very favorites. And thanks to Susie and David for reminding me about Amadeus, another one of my favorite movies I forgot about. There are so many of them, and I can't seem to remember them all.

I also like

AS GOOD AS IT GETS Greg Kinnear did an excellent job playing a gay man in that movie. So did Cuba Gooding Jr. And I am not a big Jack Nicholson fan, but I really did like him in this movie. I have the DVD and I pull it out and watch it sometimes. I can't seem to grow tired of this film. I love it!  :D

SOLARIS (!972) great philosophical science fiction

MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE (original) shocking revelation, excellent suspense

CRASH, HAH! GOT YOU

VERTIGO, best Hitchcock film, it's been said that SOLARIS borrowed a bit from this film in so much as how real is a replica if she looks, talks, dresses likes the original.

HOWARDS END yep it humorless, but the characters are great.  Like BBM, much use of symbolism.  The old house represents England.  The characters represent their respective class.

ROMEO AND JULIET (1968)  the most popular Shakespeare film ever on cinema. It was a blockbuster and with good reason.

CHINATOWN great film noir.  Complicated plot with a dark secret at the center.  Acting doesn't get much better. Nicholson and Dunaway are great

BONNIE AND CLYDE.  GReat gangster film.  So much style for this sort of film. French new wave I think they called it.

2001, A SPACE ODYSSEY.  The grandfather of science fiction film. 

THE LITTLE FOXES.  Older movie, based on the Lillian Hellman play.  Greed in the Deep South. Betty Davis is at her best.
