Get Crazy (1983). Just a fun piece of silliness with a cameo from Lou Reed.

And Electric Larry

Been watching a movie per day for quite a long time now. There are many great ones. Just watch all the genres from all over the world and from different decades, you'll find them.

  1. Not just a great war movie, but also a cinematic masterpiece.

Requiem for a Dream. But probably only watch it once.

Last time a similar question was asked, I responded with Perfect Blue, The End of Evangelion, and Love & Pop.

So this time, I'm going to suggest Sans Soleil.

If you want to add non English movies to the list, then I have two to suggest:

  • Children of Heaven
  • Cinema Paradiso

I'll throw RRR onto the international pile since it's the kinda film that feels like the greatest movie ever while you're watching it.

As much as I enjoyed Banshees, it didn’t have the snappiness and immediacy of In Bruges.

Trying to come up with a few that aren't on the list:

Wings of Desire (Der Himmel über Berlin) - Just a beautifully touching film, with a unique style and a great cameo of Peter Falk as himself. Much better than the English Language remake (City of Angels)

Come and See (Idi i smotri) - Hard to watch, but an incredible portrayal of the horrors of war. Not a feel-good film at all. But an amazing feat of filmmaking.

My Dinner With Andre - It's ironic that the movie that Roger Ebert referred to as "entirely devoid of clichés" has become a cliché. I'm not sure how well it's aged for modern audiences, but I first saw it in the 80's, have seen it at least a dozen times since, and it still really gets to me. I empathize heavily with both characters in the way that they search for meaning in life, and I could listen to Andre Gregory tell stories all day.

Stop Making Sense - A stellar concert documentary. The first time I saw it was a midnight screening where the audience got up and danced through the whole movie. David Byrne is hypnotic.

The Decline of Western Civilization - Amazing look at the Los Angeles punk rock scene of the early 80's

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? - A classic stage-to-screen adaptation. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton chew the scenery for a few hours while their guests Sandy Dennis and George Segal try to make sense of it all. Amazing acting, great cinematography that really leverages the closeup. A must-see.

The Lion in Winter - Sort of a medieval version of the above with Peter O' Toole and Katherine Hepburn. Also see a young Anthony Hopkins and Timothy Dalton put on stellar performances. Like Virginia Woolf above, this is acting with a capital A.

The Triplets of Belleville (Les Triplettes de Belleville) - A unique animation style and a unique story. A really fun watch.

Ivan's Childhood; although all of Tarkovsky's oeuvre is worth it.
