I guess 'Brazil'. It's more out of obligation than desire that I want to see it though...Can anyone offer some words of encouragement?

If you liked the book 1984 but felt there was a lack of glittery 80s dream sequences with wings and swords, you should see Brazil

Go see Brazil or I will have you murdered.

Brazil was wayyy better than I expected. I didn't think it would be my kind of movie, but I really enjoyed it. Still holds up today.

I need to see Brazil again, it didn't appeal to me the first time. But, I haven't seen:

Any Sergio Leone
It's a Wonderful Life
Casablanca
Gone with the Wind
On the Waterfront
Any Billy Wilder (except Double Indemnity, pretty kick ass)
Any Altman (other than Gosford Park, which I didn't like anyhow, but I'll give it a second chance)

To sum it up, I haven't really seen the big classics of the 40's and 50's.

I saw Brazil last night, I thought it was okay. I can see its fanboyish appeal.

maybe i should've started a new thread, but i didn't feel like it. better to revive this old dog.

anyway, i've been really annoyed with myself lately because i have about 20 movies in my house that i really want to see but never get around to it. i have a feeling after halloween everything will be chill and i'll watch all of my movies (by halloween i have to get the xixax halloween festival organized (not really a priority, but still), get in my college app (meaning video tape, essay, all that crap), organize the film festival at school, make at least one short film for that festival, and a whole bunch of other shite). not a lot of time to do all that, eh? anyway, here are the movies i have in my possession that i've been meaning to get around to, some for a really long time.

-Tie me up, tie me down
-kika
-high heels
-magnificent ambersons
-network
-ponette
-scanners
-dead alive
-the man who fell to earth
-lawrence of arabia
-chinatown
-iron monkey
-m. hulot's holiday
-godfathers 2 and 3
-barry lyndon
-charade
-touch of evil
-run ronnie run
-dune
-elephant man

usually i watch at least one movie every 2 days, i've been falling short lately. stupid work and its workiness.

but, hey! it's my birthday in 2 days! that's awesome. i'm going to get at least 3 movies to add to that disgustingly long list.
