Ok I'll vote for blush X1995 Its the one that made me cry :( I don't remember how Blush ends, but didn't anyone here wipe away a tear or two when the battle's finally over, the half-dead men emerge totally black from the pit, and then, in those dialogue-free final moments, our hero is washed clean ...

Sorry, I've not been active on here. Been busy with a new job. I'm gonna get these three in, though, promise! (And catch up on the ones unseen from previous rounds).

Dang it. I thought I had another day, and planned on watching the ones I needed to see today. Oh well. I'll watch them in due time, even though I can no longer vote.

You know what'd be hilarious? If Limelight topped both of their lists. I know it won't happen, but.. I don't use Letterboxd, so, I can't participate, but it'd probably be on the top for me for both of them, Keaton for sure.

No surprises really there. Although I expected On the Waterfront to run away with this.

A Countess from Hong Kong (Chaplin)

Here are my nominees this year (I already posted this on the other forum a while ago) If anyone watches any of them besides the ones I struck through, I'll watch one of your nominees. Just let me know. :) (You don't have to support it. I find more pleasure in recommending them than actually getting ...

Is there a significant Indian user base here? Or just a lot of people here who enjoy Indian cinema?

gonna watch at least one more before i vote, but for now let me quote my review of GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT from mubi: "anglo-saxon pretends to be jewish for a week so he can write an article about the prejudice jews experience. possibility of just getting an actual jew to write the article never...

Judging by some of the comments here, he was quite the polarizing figure? No?

Seen all.

1. On the Waterfront
2. A Face in the Crowd
3. Gentleman's Agreement
4. Wild River
5. Panic in the Streets

The Slender Thread, director Sidney Pollack's debut film and stars Sidney Poitier and Anne Bancroft. Bancroft plays a housewife who took a handful of pills in a suicide attempt. Experiencing possible regret, she calls a suicide hotline, manned by Poitier. The film then delves into her story via flas...

It appears I've not seen anything from Kautner. I don't use Letterboxd or IMDb, and there's no list on I Check Movies, so, there's really no easy way for me to find out.

Requiem was one of those self-consciously 'realistic' early 60s joints, like The Pawnbroker or A Hatful Of Rain ('57), that get a little on my nerves for their earnest heavyhandedness. I get this feeling you are going to HATE my first choice for 1965. :lol: We shall see shortly, I suppose. I guess ...

I've seen 5, apparently. I wasn't too familiar with the name, which doesn't surprise me. -Summer of the Monkeys -Around the World in 80 Days Others I've seen: Logan's Run, Captain's Courageous (which I coincidentally just watched, no bearing on this poll whatsoever) and The Shoes of the Fisherman. I...

I'll just chalk this up as not enough people haven't gotten around to Free Solo yet. Amirite?

I'll give this a try, despite it seeming quite daunting a task and a futile one at that. Seen about 80 from last year thus far. 1. Free Solo 2.If Beale Street Could Talk 3. Other Side of the Wind 4. I Can Only Imagine 5. Green Book 6. BlackKklansman 7. Bohemian Rhapsody 8. Roma 9. Won't You Be My Ne...

It sure would be nice if peeps expanded on what they found interesting/liked/disliked/reacted to in these movies. Or we can stick with the concise x#### format, whatever. Honestly, I have a hard time really articulating what I like or dislike about most films. Even to the point of assigning an arbi...

Wow, yall are picking some obscure films. My films for 2011 average 6100 views on letterboxd. All of you guys picked groups of films averaging several hundred views max I dunno what year I'm doing. I guess I need to reconcile myself to the fact that I won't be able to pick five films that I average...
