Cidade de Deus (City of God) 2002, R)

Three Colors: Red (Trois couleurs: Rouge) 1994, R)
To be honest, I was confused as to what makes this movie so great, and even the stream of thought that it was supposed to be on. Then I watched the special features and realized all the symbolism, connections and what was actually going on. I blame partly the English subtitles, which failed to even fill me in on what important newspaper headlines said. Hopefully after I watch White and Blue and come back to this film again, I'll be able to appreciate it more fully. |

The Birth of a Nation 1915, G)
This redefined the way we make films. It's pretty racist-ly driven, though. |

Faust 1926, Unrated)
There's some amazing imagery. I especially loved the scenes with the Archangel and Mephisto, but somewhere in the middle the scenes got a little long and tedious; tested my patience a bit. |

Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans 1927, Unrated)
One of the most beautiful films I've ever seen. I'm somewhat new to silent films (however, very devoted now) and it has set the bar high for all of the films I've watched since. |
