Gone With The Wind. Great 1939 epic about the Old South (USA) Civil War and the mixed-up love between four people. The most commonly quoted line in US today is: Rhett Butler said "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."
Also anything directed by Cecil B. DeMille

You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your f*cking khakis... You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else.
Reminds us that material possessions mean nothing in the end. What legacy will you leave behind?

Read Asimov's short stories under the same name. You'll be even more impressed than some cheesy action knockoff could offer. I, Robot and I am Legend are two good examples of the movie totally ruining a good story.

Pi and Requiem for a Dream
iamthwee commented: Yep seen both +21
Salem 5,248 Posting Sage
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
The Blues Brothers
Pale Rider
Terminator 2: Judgement Day - make sure you watch the longer "Directors cut"
V for Vendetta - I find this rather too prophetic for the way the UK is heading :(
For a more surreal experience, try these
The Wall
Videodrome
jephthah commented: some really good movies there. never seen "V", though. have to check that out sometime. +10

They're just movies, dude. Your question is about as meaningful as talking about the last time you picked a booger that gave you an epiphany. People will just look at you with confusion and pity.

Saw it Sat. night at a drive-in-theater. Probably one of best new films I've seen. Everything else new this year has been: to tame, watered down, over used, or long winded(Watchmen!).

i have hard time understanding your english.. when you are posting a foreign speakers thread, please take it into consideration.

i have hard time understanding your english.. when you are posting a foreign speakers thread, please take it into consideration.
(1) i wasn't speaking to you.
(2) cultural references and figures of speech are commonplace. You're the ESL student, it's your job to learn them.
seeing as how you live in america, let me help you better assimilate by not catering to your incessant whining and crying

For me First comes "A Beautiful Mind" and falling back just by an inch is "Shawshank Redemption".
The two most unforgettable movies I have ever seen.

i watched "A Beautiful Mind", i am not sure about "Shawshank Redemption"
csurfer 422 Posting Pro
"Shawshank Redemption" go watch it now or else you'll miss out on a very good movie, The tag line "Fear holds you a prisoner,Hope sets you free" itself defines it...

I just remembered two movies that were quite impressive to me.
Carl Dreyer's The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) -- imdb
Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai (1959) -- imdb
two of my favorites. consistently in the Top 10 of lists of best movies of all time. for the record, my wife hates them both with extreme prejudice.
there's probably no middle ground. you'll either love it or hate it.

It would probably be easier to list the least impressive films, as the new ones seem to outdo each other in this respect.

i read some stuff about janne d'arc, during 1300-1400, still some french people hate british people because of that incident..

There are many things in history that people want to forget. I think that all of us will agree on this,
Lets not go that deep into hatred among people as its mostly an assumption (Though there might be truth in it. )
So people, Lets just stick to the movies and not go into hatred.
--------------------------------------
As far as my favourite movie.
There are tons and tons of them.
But as for now, I would like to mention Gladiator, Troy and 300 as my favourite medival war movies :)
