I haven't seen 'Immortal Beloved' yet, but just know I'd enjoy it - so add it in as my 13th choice!

Yess!! You must see it to believe it, it is a definete tour de force from Gary Oldman!! It was a genuine, poignant performance.

I wanted to say "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" and so many of his films... "It's A Wonderful Life" etc., etc. I had to come back and mention a few more:

Witness For the Prosecution

A Place In the Sun

The Misfits

Judgement At Nuremburg

I Confess

Rebel Without A Cause

Once Upon A Time In America
(As I recall, had a different ending when released. Liked the version I saw at a screening.)

Mrs. Miniver

The Claudette Colbert (sp?) film, where she sticks her leg out to hitch a ride.

Easy Rider

Five Easy Pieces

Sunset Boulevard

Really too many to list. Sure I've forgotten some. But, that's my two cents...for now.

 

[Zereh]

Not a complete list, but the ones that came to me first:

Good Will Hunting
Garden State
The Last Samurai
Crash
Sideways
Man on Fire
Signs
Galaxy Quest
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
AI ~ Artificial Intelligence (this one disturbed me, it definitely made me think though, I admit I left the theater crying and cried all the way home ... and even now I can't decide whether I love it or hate it, but it definitely had an impact)

Wow, did I love The Rose, Wasabi! What a talent!!! Don't think there's anything I don't like that the Divine Ms M has done. She cracked me up in Ruthless People and Down and Out in Beverly Hills.

If this doesn't make one want tap one's toes...

One of my favorites (but I like them all):

Some say love, it is a river ​

That drowns the tender reed.​

Some say love, it is a razor​

That leaves your soul to bleed.​

Some say love, it is a hunger,​

An endless aching need.​

I say love, it is a flower,​

And you it's only seed.​

​

It's the heart, afraid of breaking, ​

That never learns to dance.​

It's the dream, afraid of waking,​

That never takes a chance.​

It's the one who won't be taken,​

Who cannot seem to give.​

And the soul, afraid of dyin',​

That never learns to live.​

​

When the night has been too lonely, ​

And the road has been too long,​

And you think that love is only​

For the lucky and the strong,​

Just remember in the winter​

Far beneath the bitter snows,​

Lies the seed, that with the sun's love,​

In the spring becomes the rose.​

​
