ok, i thought i would take a break from the TAGSMS wierdness to post this.

Anthony's Ten Movies You HAVE to see (or else).
seriously, these movies will improve your health and your wealth, not to mention make you a better person for seeing them.

10. Fargo. great script, and in my opinion, this has one of the best characters in film- Marge Gunderson
9. Alien. Not only the best horror film, but also the best suspense thriller/sci-fi movie. that alien is the best designed creature in the WORLD.
8. Mulholland Drive. David Lynch's other films suck. this one is yummy wierd creepy goodness.
7. The Cook The Thief His Wife and her Lover. What can i say. there never was a more beautifuly shot film. well...maybe #1. the ending is perfect. a little disturbing, but perfect for the movie.
6. Cutthroat Island. good action fun. great production value too. incredible score.
5. Last Year at Marienbad. all i can say is: Whaaaa???. french surrealism, you gotta love it.
4. La Femme Nikita. cool movie, cool tv show. luc besson at his best.
3. American Beauty. it won oscars.
2.The Nightmare Before Christmas. You know its good. Just admit it.
1. The Draughtsman's Contract. seriously, what did you expect me to put at #1? i mean c'mon. this is the single best film EVER made in the world. i could watch it all day. but i dont. so many good things, but the script is in a class of its own. incerdible word play in this movie. The original version was over four hours long, but it was cut down to about 1hr. 45min. before it was ever released. i would kill to see the four hour version. KILL. this is the only movie ive watched that kept me stunned with its absolute perfectness. ladies and gentle-sirs, it is simply GENIUS.
