My GF and I are rebuilding our love film list.

Any recommendations??
Even "chick flick" 😯 movies (No p155 taking,please. They're just to balance the list and low priority 😉 ).

IMDB top 250

Dave 🙂

Is that a US list ? You have to go the 13 before you get a film that isn't American (Lord of the Rings) and 34 for Leon (French).

Did you know there's a pizza/tapas place in Ripponden called el Gato Negro ? We passed it last Tuesday 🙂

'The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou' and/or 'The Darjeeling Limited'.
both outstanding in all ways possible!

Mesrine

'Away we go.' nice wee indie flick with John Krasinski in it , funny romantic and great soundtrack.
similarly 'Juno'.

Let The Right One In.

You don't way if you are after recent ones of not, so forgive the (relative) oldies. No particular theme or order here, just the first ones that popped into my head. I have no idea what you like so you may hate them all 😆

Into The Wild – the most visually beautiful film I have seen
Leaving Las Vegas – harrowing and depressing, but still a must see
Bridge to Terabithia – do not dismiss this as a kid's movie
District 9
Before Sunrise

I bought a vampire motorcycle.

IMDB top 250

Toy Story 3 – 10th Best film of all time? Not sure I'll bother to ready any further 😉

Hot Rod:

Self-proclaimed stuntman Rod Kimble is preparing for the jump of his life – to clear fifteen buses to raise money for his abusive stepfather Frank's life-saving heart operation, because he can't bear the thought of him dying without getting one more chance to "smash his face in".

Without a doubt, an all-time favourite.

There are some odd entries – well it is open to the general public 😉 – but a good place to check if a film might be of interest. A few from the list I've liked recently:

Once Upon a Time in the West
Pan's Labyrinth
Once Upon a Time in America
Sin City
Unforgiven
Oldboy
Letters from Iwo Jima
Crash
Little Miss Sunshine

Bubba Ho-Tep.

The English Patient.

Dave

The wind that shakes the Barley

The proposition

Kes

American graffitti

Bladerunner

Ferris Buellers day off

Talladega nights

The princess bride

All the star wars films (or just IV onwards if only want decent films)

HARRY BROWN

just watched it last night and it was pretty good, if a bit violent & gritty.

A class performance from Mr Caine.

Kids – Larry Clark

Shaving Ryan's Privates
Black Joe's Meat

Amelie
Eye candy and funny for you and thought provoking love story for her.

Great film

The Hangover
36
La Balance

The latter two are excellent French crime films, La Balance is quite old now (1982)so may be difficult to get

Amores Peres
Heat
District 9
Planes trains and automobiles
Withnail and I
The deerhunter
platoon
Deliverance
One flew over the cuckoos nest
Full metal jacket
300
rescue dawn
american psycho

loddrik – I'm with ya bro 😉

watched Near Dark, 1980's vampire flick and early direction by Kathryn 'hurt locker' Bigelow.

not bad, lots of 80#s synth backing etc etc

Alien
Aliens
Alien 3

NOT Alien Resurrection ('cos it's tat)

Then move onto the more sublime films, with Pete's Dragon, Batteries Not Included, and Monsters Inc.

You could also try going for the complete set of "original films that Hollywood made remakes of" and compare them with the remakes. That would give you Solaris, The Ring and many others.

wathed 'the jacket' quite recently
was very good if a bit formulaic at the end

and my last cinema film was also staring adrian brody but good in a different way

The Island with Ewan McGregor..

not bad, though serious overtones and prompts from the much better Logan's Run
