- For me, the ones that I can see over and over again, everytime
- finding something to get excited about are:
-
- The Godfather (I&II--but not III): given my slow and little brain, it took I
- think about five times for me to start making sense who was on what
- side and what was going on in general. Really.
-
- Taxi Driver: I don't know why, but this movie really fascinates me.
-
- Crimes and Misdemeanors: just a little gem, IMVHO, with everything
- working smoothly--the intelligent story, the flawless acting, the
- perfect directing, and the timeless moral issues raised.
-
- Chinatown: this too was a teaser for my easily-muddled head. But
- again, it just hypnotises me....
-
- The Passenger (with Nicholson): for some reson, I found this movie
- very deep--though I have yet to find someone who'll agree with me
- on this!
-
- Brazil: for this one, I think it's the music, though the movie
- itself too capitivates my attention from beginning to end.
