-Da vinci code
-angels and demons
-harry potter
-death note
-para para sakura
-kung fu panda
-finding nemo
-sharks tale
-meet the spartan???
-interview with the vampire
Luminary: Rise of the GoonZu player
I didnt take any Star Wars or Lord of the Rings into it, since they are... well cult, and dont really belong into such a list.
10. The Producers 1968
I mean the original from 1968, a Mel Brooks film. There have been a lot of Nazi comedies, most are stupid or embarrasing, but The Producers is so hilarious watching those Nazis on the stage musical-like dancing, its a killer film!
9. The House of Flying Daggers 2004
This is a Chinese film, one of those highly artistic costume and twisted plot films we have seen several in these years. Personally I like this film most, because the plot twists are so personal, and not as abstract as in Hero or similar movies.
8. Pocketful of Miracles 1961
Its a movie where Bette Davis plays an ugly old, poor women getting her living by selling apples, mostly to some shady characters. A really stunning movie, whose "transformation scene" always brings a tear to my eye. I dont spoil the idea, but if you know you know what I mean. Quite touching. ^^
7. The Shootist 1976
The Shootist was the last film with John Wayne before he died, and imo besides the rough Marshal Rooster Cogburn one of his best roles. This feeling there is this aged, rough Shootist who just does not fit into the new era and comes to live his last days in peace is really touching.
6. Princess Mononoke 1997
There are many animes, and many from Miyazaki, but Mononoke IMO stands out. This entire plot of technology VS natural mythology is something which relates a lot to me. I felt this sense of drama of humanity loosing its connection to nature as some deep dramatic change. Do we kill our ancient gods for progress? Some story which really moved me more than those individual dramas from his other movies.
5. Guess who is coming to Dinner 1967
This was the last movie where Kathrine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy played, since he died soon after. I greatly adore those two actors. Its about a family who raised her daughter quite liberal, but still catches them both by surprise when she suddenly comes home with her black husband, greatly played by Sidney Poitier.
4. The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen 1988
This is the Terry Gilliam film, with John Neville as Münchhausen. I love this film, tho I know it was quite a flop. Its a long film, but the main character deeply moved me. He is an old man, apparently living from his weird tales, who just does not fit into this new "age of reason" at all. There is this scene at the beginning, where he just lays there and wants to die. "Because it's all logic and reason now. Science, progress, laws of hydraulics, laws of social dynamics, laws of this, that, and the other. No place for three-legged cyclops in the South Seas. No place for cucumber trees and oceans of wine. No place for me." I so often felt like this myself.
3. Der Hauptmann von Köpenick (The Captain of Kopenick) 1956
This story was filmed many times in Germany, and its a poular theatre play as well. I love this version with Heinz Rühmann, but I guess you really have to see the German version, because there was his voice, which makes him so fitting for this role. The main character is some kind of underdog who is in predicament with the mills of bureaucracy. He spent some time in prison where he manufactured foot mattresses. Due to the inhuman bureaucracy he is about to loose the small life place he attained, and he makes a weird plot to work his problem out. There is this very moving scene, when he is about to give up and almost cries "And when I will go to my creator, and he ask me what have you done with the life I gave you, and then I'll say 'foot mattresses. I made foot mattresses - and they all stepped on it!" It always touches me, and I guess it does everyone who is or was underdog in life. Its better in German, there is the desperation in his voice, and the wording makes it ambivalent that he both made foot mattresses and feel like he is one.
2. Inherit the Wind 1960
A really, really great movie with Spencer Tracy. The story is that a teacher is brought to the court because he educated the Evolution theory of Darwin, which infuriates the religious people of his village. Tracy playes the lawyer defending the teacher. It is a great drama, and I must add that to most Europeans it feel odd, since here everyone who would seriuosly suggest to cut Darwin's theory from school would only find himself in a mental hospital the next day. Nevertheless, its a moving story, displayed greatly and shows the entire hyporisy or religious zeal. A great parable evenly great displayed.
1. V for Vendetta 2005
This is my absoulte best movie of all times. It's a real must see. The story is, a religious fundamentalist Nazi regime has taken over Britain, and "V" is the only rebellous fighter against the regime left. Its a moving and deeply disturbing film, but something I seriously think should be part of every school schedule in the world. I guess I never will listen to Tschaykovsky's "1812" ever the same again. One of the many wonders of the film is what great character Hugo Weaving gives to "V" even though he is always under a mask.
