View Recommended Movies »Harrison Ford as a cop trained to kill replicant humans. But how can you tell the artificial from the real?
View Blade Runner »Gerard Depardieu handles the role with aplomb; exquisite sets and costumes complement an intelligent Roxane and sympathetic Christian. (subtitled)
View Cyrano de Bergerac »Another definitive film, this time of the antebellum and Reconstruction Era South. Not actually my cup of tea, but a must-see for anyone seeking cinema literacy.
View Gone with the Wind »For those into wry gallows humor. Slighted by his aristocratic relatives, Henry realizes that only eight people—all played by Alec Guinness—stand between him and the dukedom.
View Kind Hearts and Coronets »The classic little guy vs. big political machine. Jimmy Stewart finds his apotheosis in Capra’s indictment of corruption in the Capitol.
View Mr. Smith Goes to Washington »Not for the weak of stomach. But Quentin Tarantino’s terrific script and directing are matched by great performances from Tim Roth, Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi, and others in this account of a badly botched bank robbery. Far superior, IMHO, to the more-lauded Pulp Fiction.
View Reservoir Dogs »You may need to see it twice to follow the intricate plot(ting), but this is the ultimate con game movie.
View Sting, The »William Hurt and Kathleen Turner plot her husband’s murder for love and money.
View Body Heat »Another great Marx Bros. film that would rate an A except for some tedious musical interludes. The Tutti-Frutti ice cream sequence stands out among the string of classic bits.
