Citizen Kane 1941, PG)
There are a few moments in the film that betray the film as a product of the 1940's (some of the makeup and Dorothy Comingore's performance). Otherwise, this film could have been made yesterday and it would still be a great film. |

Arsenic and Old Lace 1944, Unrated)
This may be the funniest movie I've ever seen. Cary Grant is over the top and his comic timing is perfect. I seldom laugh out loud at movies, but for the first half of this film I couldn't help myself. |

Strangers on a Train 1951, PG)
Forget Farley Granger, the real star of this film is Robert Walker as the deranged Bruno Anthony. |

District 9 2009, R)
This movie was fantastic. A cast of unknown actors led by Sharlto Copley who has never really acted before and completely carries this film. It's hard to think of another movie where a digital characters have been so well integrated. |

Hoop Dreams 1994, PG-13)
I'm not at all a fan of basketball, yet count this among my favourite films. It's very long (almost 3h) but the time just passes so quickly. It's up there with Rocky as a film that trancends the genre of "sports film". |
