The Cemetery needs a Fellini night

They need a couple of Indie films thrown in - like Stranger Than Paradise or Reservoir Dogs (so much more of an impact on the culture and industry than Pulp Fiction, IMHO).

These are the ones that opened up the medium to the sleeper, low budget hits like The Blair Witch Project, Little Miss Sunshine, et al.

This is Spinal Tap should also be there somewhere and (to vaporize any credibility I may have gained) a Bond film just for good measure.

Hmm... Rating the underrated movies... Wouldn't that cancel out their underratedness?

Can I just add this list to my Amazon Wish List? Or, can MousePod move down here this evening?

There are many on this list I SHOULD own and don't and other I need to see.

Here's a short list of films I really like that don't seem to "make lists".

The Professional
La Lectrice
La Femme Nikita
Antonia's Line
Sheltering Sky
Lolita
The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Until The End of the World
The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and her Lover
Blue Velvet
Fargo
Hannah and Her Sisters
Interiors
Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown
The Dreamers
Cinema Paradiso
Persona
Dangerous Liaisons

Good list, NA! :)
Jean Du Florette and Manon of Spring Are Great, too.
I also enjoyed Central Station, City of Lost Children and My Father's Glory. I also have a soft spot for Enchanted April.

I remember the first time I watched Blue Velvet - a truly unforgettable experience!

I think we should come up with the LoT 100 in no apparent order.

Oooh, that might be fun...

Now, who would compile it?

NA, Fargo was on the AFI list the first time around.

I've been meaning to give The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and her Lover another go for years. I saw it when I was 19 or so and absolutely hated it.
