Run Lola Run (Lola rennt) 1998, R)
There is so much going on in this film, you can watch it 50 times and still get something more from it. Beautifully done. |

Magnolia 1999, R)
P.T. Anderson's Masterpiece! Brilliantly woven tapestry of life's battles, disappointments, struggles, and lack of coincidences. |
|
| 3 |
Memento 2000, R)
Thrilling from beginning to very end.. to beginning.. to end... A must-see for all film lovers. |

The Royal Tenenbaums 2002, R)
For such a beautifully fictional tale, the characters are so truthfully deep. For such an outrageous story, this movie hits so close to home. Wes Anderson's finest. |

Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind 2004, R)
A beautiful portrayal of the things that make relationships painful and the things that make relationships worth it. Jim Carrey proves his range. Kate Winslet blows me away. Kaufman and Gondry make a great team. |

South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut 1999, R)
Parker and Stone are geniuses. Nuff said. |
|
| 7 |
The Science of Sleep 2006, R)
This film is a patchwork of all of Gondry's previous works. When pieced together, these patches create an amazing quilt of inginuity, originality, creativity, and randomnity... the things that dreams are made of. |

Little Miss Sunshine 2006, R)
This film brilliantly paints the gritty quirks, vices, and flaws of a dysfuntional family with the bold colors of hilarity and reality. Fall in love with the Hoovers. Watch this movie today. |

Empire Records 1995, PG-13)
A time machine to 1995. This film really takes me back. Its quirky and doesn't take itself too seriously, although it deals with an array of serious subjects a teenager might face. |
|
| 10 |
Running With Scissors 2003, R)
My new fave. Thank you, Mr. Burroughs, for sharing your adolescence with the world. |

Punch-Drunk Love 2002, R)
Punch-Drunk Love is pure poetry. As in every Anderson film, the story is erratic but the emotions and relationships are incredibly real. This part must have been made for Sander because he fits in this role like a glove. Anderson is truly a genius. |

Nacho Libre 2006, PG)
Way funnier than expected. Much like its unlikely hero, this film has surpassed incredible odds to become an unexpected fave. Jack Black rocks in every movie he's done.. what more can I say? |
