I got this book for my birthday that I have just picked up and started to have a look at. Actually it is called "1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die" but hey, I'm English, not American  So do the TEF concur with the editors? I thought of a few and then checked to see. Apollo 13 - no Badlands - yes Goodfellas - yes Dirty Harry - yes Pulp Fiction- yes Metropolis - yes The Wolf of Wall Street - yes The Matrix - yes The films are chronological from 1903 to 2014 Post up yours if you can be stuffed. I will be back now and again to confirm  |

Funnily enough just been through my collection with the wife, and she did only 17 shit of 200 even though she doesn't like blokes films.
My top 5 are : The good the bad and the ugly, Once upon a time in the West, Goodfellas, American Graffiti and Pretty Woman. Actually the last one is a lie, It's Life of Brian

Shawshank Redemption will be said though I think it's overrated.
For me:
Godfather I, II
City of God
Mullholland Drive
Boyhood
Eternal Sunshine..
Scream
Under the skin
Does it count documentary films?

My top 5 (in no particular order) are:
Back to The Future
Captain Phillips
Pulp Fiction
Indiana Jones (Raiders)
The whole of the most recent Batman series.
This was hard though, I love far too many films.

blues brothers
trainspotting
die hard
star wars
casino*
*panic selection, too much choice
obviously trainspotting won't be in an American book.

Very impressive, there's a few there I have never heard of. Docs do in the sense that Bowling For Columbine did  |
