I REALLY don't believe in list favourites of stuff (I mean, it's fine for other people to do, I just don't like doing it myself) so I'll just go through everyone else's and say what I approve of. And maybe add a few more off the top of my head at the end.

Revanche is an Austrian film which I think is very good. Anything by Fassbinder. A Separation. blablablablablablabla. It would take so long to list my favourites, any sane person would probably die of boredom before finishing reading it. |

Are you a Mel Gibson fan or something? I worked with him on "Edge of Darkness." The guy's a total looney.

Thanks.  For the why, I can assure you that the soundtrack of that incriminated movie (by Cliff Martinez) is one of the exquisites that my HFA friend whose special interest is music loves to the extreme and I like too. I think the movie itself is average, not as bad as some think it is, none of Lem's film adaptations is really good. |

1. Jesus' Son - It feels perfect and sad and sweet. I love it very very much. (also, I saw it in the theater with the family and friends of the woman who plays the nursing home administrator at the end and they all cheered when she came on screen and now every time I see her scenes I'm proud for her.
2. True Romance - because it's excellently quotable and just a really good movie.
3. Death Proof because badass chicks are never NOT awesome. |

Actually everybody's favorite movie is "Brand Upon The Brain" by Guy Maddin. Even if they haven't seen it yet, it's their favorite movie. They may not know it. They may not want to know it, but it's their favorite movie.

The only Guy Maddin that I've seen is about 15 minutes of Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary. That's all I could stand before shutting it off. I'm open to the idea of a bizarre filmed Dracula ballet, but this was like high school amateur s**t. |

To each their own... That was the only vampire film I have actually liked... And I usually hate ballet.
