I know that most of you aren't into foreign films, so I'll make a few serious recommendations for the beginner (geared to a male audience): the Kenneth Branagh version of Henry V; any of the Ealing comedies, especially Ladykillers; the early Mel Gibson movie Gallipoli, directed by Peter Weir (The Truman Show, Dead Poets Society, Green Card); Breaker Morant, a war trial movie similar to Kubrick's Paths of Glory; Grand Illusion, a prisoner of war movie; Diabolique, a Hitchcock style thriller; Aguirre: Wrath of God, a more or less true story about a mad Spanish conquistador; M, starring pre-Hollywood Peter Lorre as a serial child-killer; and any of the Eastwood "spaghetti westerns" and the Kurosawa samurai movies.
The ladies will especially like Babette's Feast; Jean de Floret; Pygmalion; A Room With a View; Beauty and the Beast; and probably Picnic at Hanging Rock (also by Peter Weir).

I make 2 people who care. Good list, I've only seen about half of those. I've got some work to do.
I was very impressed by Peter Lorre's preformance in 'M', and by that South American actress that only made the 1 movie, the silent Joan of Arc.

Thanks. :)
The dozen or so out of that list that I've seen have all been quite good, so I look forward to taking you up on some of your other recommendations.

Are you asking LJB on a date???
*Saved by the Bell "Wooooooooooooo"*
Ah, no... :) I just know good taste when I see it. Why is everyone always trying to start drama?
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some movies to reserve from the library.

While Goodfellas is a fantastic movie, dont know how anybody could put it about the Godfather movies. Well maybe 3, but definitely not 1 or 2.
I would have to add the green mile to the list. Love that movie.

Although it is over four hours long, I think THE STAND, by Stephen King, is my favorite movie ever. it has everything except nudity. but you could picture molly ringwald nude if thats your thing...
