Mike
Leigh's superb comedy-drama of family relationships. Heart-rending,
bitter and delightful by turn.
|
|
|
|
|
One
of Lynch's best and most controversial films, it gained particular
notoriety for its depiction of Rossellini's dangerously dependent
relationship with psychopathic kidnapper Hopper and their masochistic,
oxygen-fuelled sex scenes.
|
|
|
|
|
Fellini's
unforgettable vision of beauty, decadence and the decline of a generation.
A riveting classic.
|
|
|
|
|
The
essential historical epic, and a forebear of Gladiator, this tale
of a slave rebellion from Kubrick and producer/star Kirk Douglas
is a true classic, despite its length.
|
|
|
|
|
Original
version of Fritz Lang's spectacular, highly-influential vision of
a teeming, politically dubious urban future.
|
|
|
|
|
Warren
Beatty and Faye Dunaway pepper the American Midwest with bullets
in this intelligent, amoral, genre-busting gangster movie.
|
|
|
|
|
With
two iconic 'performances' - Kong's and Fay Wray's - and one of the
all-time climaxes: at the Empire State building, this has 'classic'
written all over it.
|
|
|
|
|
British
gangster classic starring Michael Caine as the eminently quotable,
ultimately tough Jack Carter.
|
|
|
|
|
A
moody, intelligent Western starring John Wayne in his most complex
role as Ethan Edwards, the eternal outsider.
|
|
|
|
|
Affectionately
refenced/spoofed in many movies since – most famously Bill & Ted's
Bogus Journey – the great Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal features
as its central motif a knight taking on Death at a game of chess.
The prize? His life.
