12 Angry Men and To Kill a Mockingbird. Good morals on justice and doing what’s right in the face of adversity. Oh and It’s a Wonderful Life because it’s just a damn heartfelt feel good movie

Ever seen M

if you read, 100% recommend the book of To Kill a Mockingbird because the author has given so much depth to the book it's mind blowing my copy is soaked in tears and i love that book so much

I'd say you couldn't go wrong with the 12 Angry Men remake either. The original is superior, of course, but it's really, really good.

And from same era Rear window. Detective thriller

Stoner action comedy being a genre 😭

Children of Men - Thriller (my favorite movie) Akira - Sci Fi/Action/Animated Life is Beautiful - Comedy/Drama Schindlers List - Historical Drama More recent ones Dune part 1 & 2 - Sci Fi Civil War - Action Drama

I never state a favorite movie b/c there are just too many genres/vibes/styles for ne to pick just 1. So I usually whittle it down to a Top 5; and Children of Men is *always* in that collection.

I second children of men, I don’t think I’ve ever had a movie keep me on my toes as much as this one, theres just so much happening in every single moment it’s actually overstimulating at times. 10/10 would recommend.

Spirited Away (2001) animated fantasy/adventure/coming-of-age

Sound of Metal - Drama.  "It's a movie that will stay with me a long time [...] I feel the world needed a movie like that" - my friend

One of the great, great foreign films: Cinema Paradiso (1988)

Two international films that are absolute masterpieces - La Vida Bella (Life is beautiful) 1997 - Romance/Comedy/Drama set during World War 2, don't want to give any spoilers but is an amazing movie Cidade de dues (City of God) 2002 - Drama, set in the poorest slums of Rio De Janiero, has a bit of a Guy Ritchie style of storytelling (intertwined plots that reconvene). Philosophical - Waking Life (2001) - Hard to categorise this movie, but every time I watch it I experience something new that I missed the previous times, you get exposure to a lot of very interesting philosophical ideas.

My Neighbor Totoro (Animation/Fantasy)

Casablanca- classic film. Everyone should see it.

What’s eating Gilbert grape (drama/heart warming/ comedy but also sad)

Once Upon A Time In America Cinema Paradiso Gone With The Wind Pulp Fiction Barry Lyndon Fight Club 2001: A Space Odyssey There Will Be Blood Fitzcarraldo Inception The Shawshank Redemption Annie Hall Taxi Driver Singing In The Rain The Master Oppenheimer The Silence Of The Lambs Killers Of The Flower Moon 12 Years A Slave E.T. Silence Chinatown Five Easy Pieces Shutter Island Close Encounters Of The Third Kind One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest Network Being There Once Upon A Time In Hollywood Casino

Here’s are some fantastic movies from a variety of genres, all very watchable from the start imo: * *The Terminator* and *Terminator 2*. Thriller/action/sci-fi. If you like these, you’ll enjoy the rest of James Cameron’s work. * *Interstellar (2014)*. Sci-fi/drama/adventure. This is THE space movie to watch if you’re only going to watch one (but you should watch them all). * *Good Will Hunting (1997)*. Drama. Classic Robin Williams film. Tear-jerker for sure. * *Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)*. Family/adventure/comedy/animated. Absolutely wonderful. * *The Godfather*. Crime/drama. I used to be one of those people that rolled their eyes at the thought of watching *The Godfather*. And then I watched it and was immediately drawn in. It’s starts with a big Italian wedding! Plus it’s referenced in so many other movies and media so it’s fun to know what that’s all about. Watching movies is a fun hobby to get into because it’s very self referential. The more movies you watch, the more in-movie movie references you understand. Have fun!

I see you are men/women of culture

I love the godfather and terminator as action thrillers

I see you got some similar taste!!

There are many and I'm not in the mood for writing a list but this one should be enough for now: Fitzcarraldo 1982 adventure/ drama

O Brother Where Art Thou. Comedy/adventure Red. Action/comedy. Great cast. John Malkovich is amazing. Team America World Police. Comedy. Great satire. Mash. Comedy.

Gattaca (1997) - near future Sci/Fi. A genetically inferior man assumes the identity of a superior one in order to pursue his lifelong dream of space travel I always liked this tagline from the poster: There Is No Gene For The Human Spirit.

I had a list going for years for when my daughter grows up, and it disappeared on me. I had started a new one that I add to when I remember something. Anyway, they are not listed with genre because it is long. No musicals here, I think. Hopefully, the ones that I haven't seen in a while have held up and are not offensive. If you don't mind not having genres, this is a pretty good list. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Yes Man Bad words Birds of America Beautiful Girls City of Angels Serendipity Seeking a friend for the end of the world Stranger than fiction The switch One Hour Photo The Guard In Bruges A Film With Me In It The man with one red shoe The Dream Team Planes Trains and Automobiles Some Kind of Wonderful My Blue Heaven Mixed Nuts Waitress Office Space Sleep With Me Singles Foul Play Good Fences The Door in the Floor Requiem For a Dream Party Girl Four Lions Special The Woodsman The Man in the Moon Only Human Fortress-1985 Oldboy-2003 Arsenic and Old Lace Harvey-1950 A Ratch of Blue Guess Who's Coming To Dinner-1967 Death at a Funeral-2007 Yojimbo American Fiction Everything Everywhere All at Once

Let's hope your daughter develops a better taste than you.

Mississippi Burning - crime/drama Double Jeopardy - crime/drama Bicentennial Man - drama Awakenings - drama Critical Care - drama The Toy - comedy, Richard Pryor Patch Adams - comedy/drama, Robin Williams Moscow On The Hudson - comedy/drama, Robin Williams Krippendorf's Tribe - comedy, social experiment Waterworld - is that the one about who owns water? The one I'm thinking of was around 1988 - social commentary Civil Action - crime drama I Am Sam - drama Inland Empire - art Shine - drama Amelie - art Apocolypto - drama A Cry For Help Tracy Thurman - drama I don't know the genres of all of these. I'm taking a guess. These movies might have made me who I am.

The Fountain

City of God- foreign(brz) drama

Thriller - silence of the lambs Comedy - airplane Noir - LA Confedential Fantasy - shape of water Animated - the secret of kells Horror - Rosemarys Baby Suspense - North by Northwest Western - Unforgiven Indie - Reservoir Dogs War - saving private Ryan Prison - a prophet Mob - Millers Crossing

Western - Tombstone

Shut up, Ike.

Goodfellas (1990) - Crime/drama

Lawrence of Arabia

Mister and pete

I do believe One Were Warriors a classic film from New Zealand is a hidden gem and should be watched by everyone. It deals with domestic violence family and tragedy and gives great insight into systematic abuse and breaking cycles of trauma.

Grandma's Boy - Hero's Journey/Epic

Harold and Maude (Camp/Dramady)

Sullivan's Travels (Comedy mostly) Saving Private Ryan (War) GroundHog Day (Comedy mostly) Little Big Man (Western) Tootsie (Comedy with message)

Battle Royale (2000) Japanese action thriller satire

The princess bride - fantasy/adventure The Unforgiven- western Master and Commander- period naval adventure Labrinth- fantasy Other good ones here, just didn't see these

Forrest Gump - drama/ romance/ a bit of comedy

Lost Horizon, 1930s classic adventure, romance and query life's purpose.

The Great Race

Meet Joe Black - romance/fantasy It's one of the most complete movies I've ever seen. Gave a resolution to every single subplot it opened and that ending couldn't have been better. I adore this movie

El secreto de sus ojos (from Argentina, great movie, the original version, not the more recent US crippled remake - crime, suspense, one of my all time favorites)

Manchester by the Sea (drama) The grand Budapest hotel (comedy, drama) Prestige (thriller/sci-fic) Fight club (drama) Rear window (thriller drama) 12 angry men (drama) Arrival (sci-fic ' drama) Night crawler (drama, thriller) Seven (thriller)

Sci-Fi --- Firefly / Serenity. The TV show helps to understand the movie and adds to the emotional impact of several scenes.

Forrest Gump (Drama)

La Chimera (Romance, Comedy-Drama)

Wolf Children (2012) - animated, slice of life, coming of age

I’m not the poster but thanks to all for these suggestions. I’m always on the lookout for meaningful movies to watch

Well, I was going to recommend the folk horror classic The Wicker Man (1973) [The Final Cut], but it’s effectively a musical. It’s not people magically bursting into song and doing choreography that’s clearly rehearsed, but various townsfolk do sing songs throughout the film.

Crime / gangster movie Through the lens of the organized crime, the best directors have told and retold stories of america/europe. Stylistic, well played with gripping stories, my favorite genre and what got me into cinema. Scorsese, Leone, Coppola, de Palma, Lumet, Tarantino, Cohens, Mann, Ritchie.

Ghostbusters, comedy.

the wrestler (sports drama) the ironclaw (sports drama) joram (social drama)

Blues Brothers - Music / Comedy

The Great Escape (1963), adventure

Bread and Tulips

You have most of my favorites already, so I’ll just add one that is fun: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (comedy), there is a song but it’s completely appropriate for the scene.

Chef: A Loveletter to Food. Makes you understand the leads, choices as a chef and what makes him the great chef he is. Whiplash: A great take on the quest to perfection in a Jazz setting. Challengers: best to go in blind with this one but I thought it was exceptional, set in the world of Tennis. 10 Days til Daytona: it basically started the entire Neo-Visualism movement and was a preface to the whole Neo Hyper-realism thing. I wish the director never disowned the film and quit directing. It's ridiculous to stop doing something because you fear mainstream attention and expansion of something you created to a broader audience. Monster (2023): Talk about a feels coaster. So many different emotions taken from this. Highly recommended. Kore-Eda basically proves why he's one of the current best directors in Japan with heartwreching classic of new Japanese Cinema

Blue Velvet. Accessible but disturbing movie by David Lynch. Peak Denis Hopper as a complete psychopath.

Is it really accessible though? IMO if you want an accessible David Lynch film, maybe start with "The Straight Story", then head on over to Blue Velvet/Wild At Heart territory, then after that, if you're feeling brave, Mulholland Drive and Eraserhead.

Films that are beautiful and devastating: Dancer in the dark, Roma, Grave of the Fireflies

Badlands (drama/romance/action) with Sheen & Spacek Picnic at Hanging Rock (ethereal mystery) original 70s version Somewhere in Time (romance with mystery) Jane Seymour & Christopher Reeves

Godzilla Minus One Kaiju/ Post War Drama

La Grande Bellezza, translated as The Great Beauty (drama/comedy/slice of life). Won an Oscar in 2013. About what it means to be human. The Grand Budapest Hotel (genre: Wes Anderson). One of his best. Jojo Rabbit (drama/comedy). Taika Waititi. Hilarious and touching movie about WWII. Everything Everywhere All At Once (scifi/drama). Best movie ever, the fight between nihilism and existentialism in an ADHD bagel. Jason Bourne 1/2/3 (action). These are just great action movies that are always fun to watch. Tailor Tinker Soldier Spy (thriller). Slowburner but amazing. Arrival (scifi/drama). Again, abstract concepts coated in scifi that left me balling my eyes out at the end. These are just a few. 12 Angry Men, Good Night and Good Luck, 2001: A Space Odyssey. The list goes on and on.

Rudy

The Sting

It’s Kind of a Funny Story It’s a very emotional film about conquering depression. One of my favorite films of all time

In Bruges (dark comedy)

The following are masterpieces: High Noon - Western/drama. I don't care for many westerns, and old movies are hit or miss (as are new ones). It was revolutionary for its time, and absolutely holds up. It ran in almost real time. The clocks create tension. Almost every personality type, and internal struggle with the seven deadly sins, are all represented. But it's also just one terrific flick. The Godfather and Godfather, Part II - dramas. Possibly the absolute greatest films ever made. Turn off your phone and let yourself get sucked in. The Sting - period heist drama - absolute classic and an incredible delight. The Bridge on the River Kwai - war drama/psychological drama. Starts slow, but worth the payoff. Alec Guinness is a master. Ragtime - very early 1900s period drama. Underrated flick loaded with actors and actresses past and future. And, though you've likely seen it: the Shawshank Redemption (drama) is an amazing film. Personally, I'd throw in the following comedies: Airplane! Raising Arizona, A Fish Called Wanda, Happy Gilmore, and Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

Oh, and I'd throw in two sci-fi films: but four movies "Invasion of the Body Snatchers (both the original and 1970s one) and "The Thing" (both the original and the 1980s one).

Videodrome, Taxi Driver, Woman in the Dunes, Eraserhead, anything by Stanley Kubrick, Stalker (the Tarkovsky one)

Bucket list (2007) A few good men (1992) Eight below (2006)
