      Shawshank Redemption without a doubt
      i LOVED signs...the camera work was to die for
      Top Gun

      ya the signs plot wasnt great but the suspense, sound, camera work, and overall atmosphere make up for it 3 fold.
      I just don't know anymore.

        I take it you do not live in a sophisticated urban environment then?

        Then get off your backside and leave the bucolic swamp you live in and make your way to civilisation. In cities people use something called "money" instead of exchanging animals so you'll need some. Just beat someone over the head with your scythe and take theirs. Make sure not to chew grass or people will stare. You don't need any new clothes since urban youth have taken up dressing like backwoods farmers, so you'll fit in. Then go to a cinema and buy a ticket to "City of God". When you emerge from the film offer a prayer to God for allowing it to be made.

        It is worth a pilgrimage of a few days to see - trust me. I almost never recommend films but this one is dynamite.

        PS - Leave your donkey outside as it will annoy the other patrons.

          Agathon, I know that was intended to be humorous, but the ignorance and pure triteness of your statement makes me shake my head in amazement.

          I challenge you to an obscure movie face off. have you seen "The Man Who Cried"?

            Oh poo to you too

            No I haven't seen "The Man who Cried". That wouldn't get shown in New Zealand because NZ men don't cry like all those effeminate blokes from other countries. So there...

            But where do you live if City of God is not on? It must be fairly out of the way. We used to get all these sorts of movies in the cow town I used to live in.

              otherwise this millenium has been rather dissappointing with movies. (although I haven't seen any new movies recently)

                I live in iowa today, but tomorrow I'll be living in massachusetts. I bet there I'll be able to see it.

                  Donnie Darko was good, very good indeed, forgot about that one already
                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                    Moulin Rouge, followed very closely by O Brother Where Art Thou.

                          Ditto.

                          Everyone - this is the last time I'll say it - if you can go see City of God. It is a brilliant movie and one of the best I have ever seen.

                            I hope to see City of God soon...

                            As for what ihave seen: LoTR (I count all three, last coming of course, as one thing)
                            Minority Report
                            The Pianist
                            Chicago

                            There are many, many more films I like, but these are the ones I see actually becoming "classics" for different reasons.

                                Oh Brother, Where Art Thou is this millenium? I will add it to my list also. That is one of the best movies I have ever seen.
