Thanks lemondrop.

It's refreshing that you are not like those snobby subs.

They know who they are.

My memory of it is that he used his neverending day of life loop to engage in trial and error in order to figure out and perfect the wooing of the object of his amorous desires. I remember it as a deconstruction of 'courting' a potential lover.

Yes, this is a fair point. I felt a bit iffy about including it on my list but I couldn't remember why. It was a good script (and a good performance from Helen Hunt) otherwise.

No sir. I'm standing in direct opposition,......holding a club.


Edit: Fight club was a good film. Like The Usual Suspects it has an unexpected twist.

Indeed. First his aim is to be free of all responsability, then it turns to have a lot of sex, then to woo the female lead, and then we have the reveleation, that she would rather love him for what he became during that few thousand days...

A good film on time travel ๐Ÿ˜‰

In term of story line, Casablanca is pretty weak: two people come into a cafe and they leave next morning on a plane. The movie lives from the snappy dialog and the stellar cast.

Watch this movie, An Officer and a Gentleman.

Then....report back to this thread, and thank me for the suggestion.

Hey Dive, this movie counts as romance. Maybe you will stop being unromantic to your wife, watch this movie with her, then thank me later. ๐Ÿ™‚

Check out "El Orfanato" if you don't know it already. Similar to The Others. Both excellent movies.

People have ssen it and were not impressed.

People are impressed by different films as has been pointed out previuosly. To insist on having found THE MOVIE is not really evoking sympathy...but repeated several times it could come overas obnoxious....

Best war film: Hunde wollt ihr ewig leben?
english: The bridge on the river Kwai

Who said they weren't impressed?

I think you're making that up, possibly because you don't like me?

How rude.

Many years ago, one of the producers of The bridge on the river Kwai was a client of mine. (Went to his funeral). A really interesting fellow.
