5 Centimeters Per Second.

The 'honorable mentions' list was HUGE. Shows why such a choice should never be made.

Oh my fucking goodness, I was about to type that too then I see this when I am scrolling up. Much respects for you dude. This is a great movie and basically shows how shitty life is.

And it's also the only reason that the ending of Kimi no Na wa is suspenseful for me. Roughly same shot structure, if I remember right.

[samhelloall9]

The Weather Man (2005) starring Nicolas Cage, Michael Caine. It's a dark comedy, but not 'violent' or 'horror'. It's just an ordinary guy who's going through a divorce, lots of funny swearing, one liners.
Fast food in-jokes.
I love the amount of awesome Chicago scenery scene 'takes' that appear throughout the film, in winter.
Wow.
It's a great movie.

But these days with my attention span...it's hard to stay focused on a movie half as long. Sigh.

Asking for best director would put less stress on the decision making process.

Back to the Future
(OK, so I am schmaltzy: when it first came out in 1985, I saw it at least 17 times in the movie theatre. I've also seen it dozens of times on TV, DVD, VHS, etc.)

I once knew someone who watched that film about the german mountaineer who ended up being the advisor to the dalai lama in lhasa in the 1940s after escaping from a pow camp, can't remember the title... every night for 2 months. I think brad pitt was in it.
