Life is Beautiful. It's an Italian film, I think it's the first foreign actor to win an Academy Award. It's about a man and his son in World War 2 who get sent to a concentration camp and all throughout it the father because he cares about his son he turns it into this like whole happy, fun, game thing he presents the concentration camp is like a big amusement park. One of the only movies you should have on DVD for that, is Life is Beautiful just because to me the ability to do that, to take life because life throws all kinds of stuff at you it's the struggle of humans.
Second place is a toss up between Unforgiven or Seven Samurai. Both of those films are flawless IMHO. My favorite movie genre is westerns.
Of course in the top ten:
- Spirited Away
- Alien & Aliens
- Terminator 2
- The Big Lebowski
- Taxi Driver
- Leon the Professional
- Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
- ect, ect. too many to list…
Escape From New York
or the Phantasm series.
Actually, there are many.
The more recent stuff has been so dull that I hardly remember any.
