More of the greatest movies

My list of great films continues...

M - Yes it’s in German, and Black and White. Mr. Peter Lorre is intense as M. The subtle hints to Germany of the time are telling.

Mad Max 2 (The Road Warrior)

It’s a Wonderful Life

The Matrix

The Bridge on the River Kwai

2001: Space Odyssy

Schindler’s List

The Princess Bride

Pulp Fiction

Nosferatu - Black and White, old and still fascinating. Without words this film conveys its suspence and emotions purely by the acting. Hardly the glamorous slick vampires we see today, and a good thing at that.

Philadelphia

The Terminator

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Raising Arizona - Love and laughter in a manic combination. Mr. John Goodman is equally inept as he is determined. And no one has had so hard a time to get some Huggies.

The Hustler

Once Upon a Time in the West

7 Samurai

The Godfather

The Shawshank Redemption

The Great Escape

The Blues Brothers

M*A*S*H*


Still some more films to go ...
