1
Bringing Up Baby 1938,  Unrated)
2
Ghost Dog - The Way of the Samurai 1999,  R)
Ghost Dog - The Way of the Samurai
Ever surprising, tells a different story every time I watch it, like Clockers.
3
The Thin Red Line 1998,  R)
The Thin Red Line
The Abridged Script for this movie says it all... but again how not be moved by the poetry of tall grass and butterflies in the middle of the battle?
4

5
The Night of the Hunter 1955,  PG)
6
The Party 1968,  PG)

8
Malcolm X 1992,  PG)
9
Babel 2006,  R)
Babel
What's most scary of this plot: It can happen any time. We need to talk more, and to try understanding each other.
10
Some Like It Hot 1959,  Unrated)
11
Arsenic and Old Lace 1944,  Unrated)
Arsenic and Old Lace
One of those small, actor-based classic comedies which makes me rejoin the joy of laughing for no other reason
12
Seven (Se7en) 1995,  R)
13
Dr. Strangelove Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb 1964,  PG)
Dr. Strangelove Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
And why is that Kubrick and Sellers didn't cooperate more?
14
Clockers 1995,  R)
Clockers
Best Spike movie ever AFAIK, every time I take a look at it I can focus on a different character and follos his evolution throughout the whole story. And the most amazing thing is the humanization of the dealer as a train collector, I loved Mekhi here.
15
Dogma 1999,  R)
Dogma
Sure stereotyped, but how wouldn't I love to laugh at Catholicism Wow - and religion as a corporation?

24
Code 46 2003,  R)
Code 46
Sci-fi at its best. And no need for much FX, just a very good story. Plus the social critic in Winterbottom.
25
Raiders of the Lost Ark (Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark) 1981,  PG)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark)
Along with King Solomon's mines, another timeless classic.
26
Hero 2002,  PG-13)
Hero
A visual poem, a dialectic fight... wow.
27
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou 2004,  R)
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
It was weird to watch, expected more usual comedy, but it's gaining more and more weight on every watching.
28
The Queen 2006,  PG-13)
The Queen
Great portrait... accurate? I don't think Lilibeth would ever disclose that. But though one can even agree with the final words by the Blair character, I'll keep republican-prone, not monarchic... in Spain.

Sicko
Controversial as it could be, the film sort of proves my point on neoliberal economics - you just have to answer to a simple question, "who profits?" It's not only a view on Health Care systems, it may be a light for some people but it's also asking the difficult question of why can't America be like that. A must see.
