Probably La vita e bella. I rewatched it recently, it's an amazing movie. Amazing.

Koyaanisqatsi and the movies inspired by it (Chronos, Naqoyqaatsi) are both depressing and intriguing (even though they have no dialogue of any kind)

Woody Allen's Take the Money and Run, Annie Hall and Love and Death were some great comedies in their day

Peter Seller's Pink Panther series were also pretty funny

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
"You see, in this world, there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig."

Whoever played Tuco really stole the show from Clint Eastwood. Those spaghetti westerns were better than any of the westerns made in the USA at the time.

A big thanks from me.

I enjoy watching Marvel movies.

It's a Wonderful Life has to be up there for sure. Hamburger Hill also gets re-played a lot. John Wayne movies....Jimmy Stewart movies almost anything with Sidney Poitier in it. Kinda hard to pick really.

Looking for some new movies to watch, maybe there is smth I've missed, so post you top movie picks!

That's a tough question to answer and it depends on when you ask it.
Saving Private Ryan, to me, is a Masterpiece.

Whilst I really enjoyed 'The Godfather' trilogy, I failed to follow, or properly understand quite a bit of the story.

When I googled some of the queries I found myself left with, to my surprise, I discovered a huge online presence of explanations in respect of anomalies left to the casual viewer.

And answers were provided: from information made explicit in the novels, or other places, to stuff found in the material edited out of the commercial film releases.

Although I have watched these on numerous occasions, I guess that if I mug up on this missing stuff, I will enjoy my next viewing even more.

Perhaps it is just me, but I get really irritated when film makers treat the viewer as idiots.

'Murder on The Orient Express' I think is the worst offender. Although I have enjoyed watching, I just keep realising what a really good film it COULD have been.
