Comments
La Règle du jeu
1939 France
The best movie ever. Here, Renoir is coining the language of modern cinema.
The Exterminating Angel
1962 Mexico
Buñuel's masterpiece. He is at his best here, combining surrealism and his very personal vision of class struggle.
North by Northwest
1959 USA
Reinventing the adventure film. Real FUN, in the most noble sense of the word.
Die Hard
1988 USA
Die Hard, a luxurious piece of moviemaking, is the John McClane of the action film. Even when you think he is going to be defeated, he is not.
The Conformist
1970 Italy, France, Federal Republic of Germany
This movie is a film school in itself. Each shot, each decision, each little trembling of Trintignant's chin.
Terms of Endearment
1983 USA
What Brooks is doing here with comedy and drama – his skill at putting together the sacred and profane, at managing and deconstructing plot structure – changed everything.
Two Weeks in Another Town
1962 USA
Why doesn't anybody talk about this movie?
