Threads. Especially should be mandatory for politicians. To date one of the most accurate portrayals of nuclear war. It is not an uplifting movie.
The Pianist
To Kill A Mockingbird
And read the book.
Rubber. The movie about the tire who woke up and chose violence.
Pitch Perfect Production of a 1970’s story that’s just shockingly good. Go in blind like I did, you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
Tap for spoiler
In 1970s Los Angeles, a mismatched pair of private eyes investigate a missing girl and the mysterious death of a porn star.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
This movie is the epitome of #mood for me. I love almost every scene as a standalone artwork. Must’ve watched it 20 times.
Did you like science of sleep? Similar vibes. Eternal sunshine is my favorite though.
I loved this movie and if I was to read a summary I would think it’s boring as hell. But it’s not. It’s on my Made Me Cry list, has an amazing female main character and a solid romance that is not cliche, and I typically cringe at movies with too much romance. This one is good. I +1 your recommendation.
5th Element.
The super weapon that sleeps half the movie.
…didnt realise this till I head it on The Film ReRoll podcast.
The main characters are never aware of each other.
Spaceballs, so you will know what the future holds.
(for now you can watch it for free on YouTube)
“12 Angry Men” (1957) is a personal favorite that I recommend to pretty much everyone. Great messages about questioning assumptions, challenging biases, understanding the limitations of evidence, acknowledging imperfections in the justice system, and the consequences thereof.
The movie is also cinematically interesting to me because it feels “small”. The entire movie just about takes place in one room, and the events of the film transpire over the course of one afternoon.
V for Vendetta
Lemmy will never understand how amazing this movie is.
Enemy Mine (1985)
The Fifth Element.
Super green.
“Listen lady, I speak two languages: English and BAD English!”
Some great ones were already mentioned. I’ll add Life Is Beautiful (1997).
