- DirectorAlexander PayneStarsBruce DernWill ForteJune SquibbAn aging, booze-addled father makes the trip from Montana to Nebraska with his estranged son in order to claim a million-dollar Mega Sweepstakes Marketing prize.Number one movie of all time. Probably because it mirrors my life a lot and what I think my life could become. Alexander Payne really knows how to pick scripts and direct them almost in a different way every time
- DirectorStanley KubrickStarsMalcolm McDowellPatrick MageeMichael BatesIn the future, a sadistic gang leader is imprisoned and volunteers for a conduct-aversion experiment, but it doesn't go as planned.One of the most violent movies you'll see that doesn't really show that much violence. Stanley Kubrick is the master in "kind of Showing, not Telling"
- DirectorPaul Thomas AndersonStarsJoaquin PhoenixPhilip Seymour HoffmanAmy AdamsA Naval veteran arrives home from war unsettled and uncertain of his future - until he is tantalized by the Cause and its charismatic leader.Paul Thomas Anderson's most confusing film I've seen, but one that I'm slowly obsessing over with all of its elements
- DirectorMike NicholsStarsElizabeth TaylorRichard BurtonGeorge SegalA bitter, aging couple, with the help of alcohol, use their young houseguests to fuel anguish and emotional pain towards each other over the course of a distressing night.AMAZING performances, brilliant performances, unbelievable performances. Probably the best acting you will see in your life
- DirectorJim JarmuschStarsJohnny DeppGary FarmerCrispin GloverOn the run after murdering a man, accountant William Blake encounters a strange Native American man named Nobody who prepares him for his journey into the spiritual world.The most "Jarmuschian" I've seen Jim Jarmusch ever, and finally a dignified portrayal of Native American Culture. Really like there are no subtitles when Gary Farmer speaks native
- DirectorEdgar WrightStarsMichael CeraMary Elizabeth WinsteadKieran CulkinIn a magically realistic version of Toronto, a young man must defeat his new girlfriend's seven evil exes one by one in order to win her heart.Edgar Wright's most energetic film, and possibly his best. Michael Cera was surprisingly perfect for the character and everyone else for that matter, especially Wallace
- DirectorMilos FormanStarsF. Murray AbrahamTom HulceElizabeth BerridgeThe life, success and troubles of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, as told by Antonio Salieri, the contemporaneous composer who was deeply jealous of Mozart's talent and claimed to have murdered him.Impossible to describe the brilliance of this movie, has to be seen to be appreciated
- DirectorThomas VinterbergStarsMads MikkelsenThomas Bo LarsenAnnika WedderkoppA teacher lives a lonely life, all the while struggling over his son's custody. His life slowly gets better as he finds love and receives good news from his son, but his new luck is about to be brutally shattered by an innocent little lie.The ending will haunt you for the rest of your life and make you feel incredibly depressed
- DirectorChris ButlerSam FellStarsKodi Smit-McPheeAnna KendrickChristopher Mintz-PlasseA misunderstood boy takes on ghosts, zombies and grown-ups to save his town from a centuries-old curse.Great story about bullying and being who you really are, even if everyone around you hates you and mocks you for it
- DirectorKevin SmithStarsBrian O'HalloranJeff AndersonMarilyn GhigliottiA day in the lives of two convenience clerks named Dante and Randal as they annoy customers, discuss movies, and play hockey on the store roof.Invoking a sort of vibe form Jim Jarmusch, as in there's no actual story, Clerks is like the comedy Jarmusch never wrote
- DirectorJonathan DaytonValerie FarisStarsSteve CarellToni ColletteGreg KinnearA family determined to get their young daughter into the finals of a beauty pageant take a cross-country trip in their VW bus.The best dysfunctional family I've seen, in that they at least work their dysfunction pretty well.
- DirectorQuentin TarantinoStarsHarvey KeitelTim RothMichael MadsenWhen a simple jewelry heist goes horribly wrong, the surviving criminals begin to suspect that one of them is a police informant.Great dialogue and character dynamics, Tarantino's first film will always be his best in my opinion
