Cinema Paradiso

Never heard of it!

Thirteen (2003)

Don’t think I’ve heard of this either!

What’s the defining moment for you in the film?

Oh it's such a good movie. I watched it as a teen and it was kind of like the warning of peer pressure I think a kid needs to see🤷🏽

I was 13 when this came out.

Good to know!

Will save for my kiddos when it’s time.

Watch it yourself first obvi to know a good age 🤷🏽

Drug use

Alcohol use scenes

But as a kid scary like wtfffffff I drink if I want to not feel my face! That's scary!

It’s got a lot of adult themes that some parents may not feel comfortable showing their kids. So watch before deciding to have a parent/child movie night.

Yeah. Seems like an older kid thing?

The Fall (2006)

Just googled.

The fall series seems pretty dope too! (No relation)

drugstore cowboy (1989) - Gus Van Sant

What was most impactful for you?

Aside from the cameo with Burroughs, that is worth the whole movie ;)

Gus Van Sant paints without hypocrisy what society despises and judges. The effort and need to overcome the addiction, change life, and have a chance is raw, not cheesy. Instead of picturing it as "bad", he builds a movie that shows it as it is without trying to filter it or making it acceptable for a mediocre audience.

Brokeback Mountain

😆😆😆

I bet it is.

I can't quit you!

But what about the fish!

You and me, goin' fishin' in the dark

gladiator

Gladiator isn’t in your top 5? It should be top 3 at the very least.

What the hell are your top 5?!

LOLZ i have a very peculiar taste.

LFG!

my top movies are: synecdoche, new york; kingdom of heaven; 2001 space odyssey; solaris; and a few more...

Common theme?

existential dread ;)

Beautiful theme

*solaris tarkowsky version of course.

Jumanji

Matrix

back to the future

Nice one!

That's my top 1

yeah, it is kinda the perfect movie... truth

Predestination

To be true, I don't even know what would be my top 2-5 😂

But other great movies are:

Inception

Matrix 1

12 Monkeys

The Great Race (1965)

Riddick

Ghostbusters

The Ninth Gate

Cloud Atlas and Go

Go!

Haven’t thought about that one in a while.

I met Katie!

Nice.

It is a must watch in the theatre (I saw it at least 3x).

For me it’s almost a perfect film that for some reason is not in my top 10 to 20.

Editing, soundtrack, acting, etc.

The Prestige

Ohhhh…

Need to revisit this one

First of all Christian Bale, enough said. But then there’s all the other fabulous cast. And the story, and lastly, maybe firstly after all, Nicola Tesla ♡

The visit, infinity pool

Don’t know either of those

Very good acting on both of those. If you like psychological/horror

Life Aquatic

Great one!

Trance, 1998. Aka The Eternal.

Yes. Christopher Walken.

What’s the opposite of Christopher Reeves?
