Gone With The Wind . Great 1939 epic about the Old South (USA) Civil War and the mixed-up love between four people. The most commonly quoted line in US today is: Rhett Butler said "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."


Also anything directed by Cecil B. DeMille

Fight Club

F*ck redemption. We are God's unwanted children? So be it! ... You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your f*cking khakis... You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else.

Reminds us that material possessions mean nothing in the end. What legacy will you leave behind?

Read Asimov's short stories under the same name. You'll be even more impressed than some cheesy action knockoff could offer. I, Robot and I am Legend are two good examples of the movie totally ruining a good story.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
The Blues Brothers
Pale Rider
Terminator 2: Judgement Day - make sure you watch the longer "Directors cut"
V for Vendetta - I find this rather too prophetic for the way the UK is heading :(

For a more surreal experience, try these
The Wall
Videodrome

They're just movies, dude. Your question is about as meaningful as talking about the last time you picked a booger that gave you an epiphany. People will just look at you with confusion and pity.

Saw it Sat. night at a drive-in-theater. Probably one of best new films I've seen. Everything else new this year has been: to tame, watered down, over used, or long winded(Watchmen!).

(1) i wasn't speaking to you.

(2) cultural references and figures of speech are commonplace. You're the ESL student, it's your job to learn them.


seeing as how you live in america, let me help you better assimilate by not catering to your incessant whining and crying
