Jarmusch is one of those directors that can make something deep and disturbing at the same time. Donnie darko was on of my favortite movies with Gyllenhal. Crazy movie. Southland Tales is another crazy but great movie. Just gotta watch it till the end. Peter Berg as a director - same guy that did “The Kingdom”
Correction, I was thinking of the movie Bully, by the same director Larry Clark. Similar flick. Kids was in NY (duh).
The Good, the bad, and the ugly Dirty Harry Missing in Action Rad Never ending story Flight of the Navigator Safety not guaranteed Road House Meru Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Margin Call The Riot Club Seven Desperado Labyrinth The Prestige
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari Hook The Birds Meet the Deedles Hard Days Night Help! Fandango Patton (the opening speech was awesome) The Hustler Bumblebee
I like a lot of the old classics, westerns, and war movies: Gone With the Wind The Sound of Music Key Largo Fighting SeaBees In Harm's Way They Were Expendable The Blue Max Red River Lonesome Dove Quigley Down Under Tombstone How the West Was Won
A couple classics / Key Largo reminded me of... To Have or Have Not (also Bogart - Bacall) and... Quiet Man True Grit Favorite Cheesy Drive In Movies from Back In The Day: Up In Smoke / Escape from New York / Planet of the Apes / Billy Jack / Flesh Gordon / Groovetube / Barbarella / The Warriors
Fast Times at Ridgemont High (Phoebe Cates boobies) Under Siege (Erika Eleniak boobies) The Wrestler (Marisa Tomei's everything)
I think the funniest movie when I saw it for the first time was Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Never laughed so hard...to the point of wheezing...particularly the first night/morning hotel room scenes.
