May 20, 2015 I think I just got distracted with something. I usually turn a movie off if I'm not giving it my full attention. Like I said, I loved Rear Window. Rope was great for basically being a play on film. Wasn't too big on Strangers on a Train tbh.
May 20, 2015 My favorites: 50s: High Noon 60s: Cool Hand Luke 70s: Jaws 80s: Who Framed Roger Rabbit 00s: Before Sunset I always draw a blank when it comes to the 90s. I don't have a definitive favorite for it. The Truman Show, Dazed And Confused, Gattaca, Exotica, and quite a few others. But I can't really choose one. As for the 2010s, most of the movies released this decade are too fresh in my mind to have a definitive favorite. But so far, it's between Before Midnight, Boyhood, The Social Network, and Mad Max: Fury Road.
May 21, 2015 I will play along as well... (although this is mostly my favorite, not the "best" -- I definitely haven't seen enough to make an accurate call on that... this is essentially a list of arbitrary films I selected to look smart) 20s- The Gold Rush (alt. Metropolis) 30s- Duck Soup (alt. Bride of Frankenstein... edit, or Angels With Dirty Faces) 40s- The Treasure of Sierra Madre (alt. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde) 1950s- Night of the Hunter (alt. All About Eve) 1960s- The Hustler (alt. Reflections in a Golden Eye) 1970s- The Conversation (alt. The Baby... edit, or Nashville) 1980s- L'Argent (alt. The Thing) 1990s- Pulp Fiction (alt. Being John Malkovich) 2000s- There Will Be Blood (alt. Far from Heaven) 2010s- The Social Network (alt. The Master)
May 21, 2015 30s: It Happened One Night 40s: Late Spring 50s: Sansho the Bailiff 60s: Persona 70s: Taxi Driver 80s: Mauvais Sang 90s: Close-Up 00s: Mulholland Drive 10s: The Tree of Life
May 21, 2015 60's - 2001 (Psycho is very close) 70's - The Godfather 1&2 (Barry Lyndon is very close) 80's - The Shining (Raging Bull is very close) 90's - Eyes Wide Shut (Thin Red Line is very close) 00's - No Country For Old Men (Probably the best movie ever made) (There Will Be Blood is very close) 10's - The Tree of Life (Thus far) (The Master is very close)
May 21, 2015 Lol i love that your movie of the 80s is the Simpsons parody of The Shining. Typos aside, you f---in nailed it. Kubrick pretty much dominated every decade he ever released a film in. I'd give the 2010s to Enter The Void though, I mean how could anyone beat it?
May 21, 2015 The hard core fans won't agree but I consider Hugo to be Martin Scorsese's best film. Good lists from certain members so far.
May 21, 2015 00's: new york subway 20's: brummes d'automnes. 30's: m. 40's: the private life of a cat. 50's: window water baby moving. 60's: symbiopsychotaxiplasm or vivre sa vie 70's: un homme qui dort or taxi driver. 80's: mauvais sang. 90's: satantango. 00's: tropical malady 10's: spring breakers or tree of life
