Dead Man 1995, R)
Possibly the first Black Comedy/Western? Jarmush's unique talent shines through the stark Black and White medium |
|

Chushingura 1962, Unrated)
Classic Japanese historical drama of greed, betrayal, and revenge. The first part especially is pure cinematic eye candy. Who could ask for more?? |
