Looking through such lists in an experience in itself. To some degree this is like exposing your naked body for everyone to see and admire - so I appreciate your candor. "Give me the child at 7, and I will give you the man, Give me your movies list and..."
I made a copy of it and will be studying it more closely. I found about 50% overlap, with perhaps 25 to 30% I didn't recall, or perhaps completely forgot. And sure enough there are some big disagreements... great surprise. La Strada kind of "almost as good" as Dancing in the Rain? Hmmmm.. That's what makes such lists interesting. The Terminator, but no Bergman?
Trainspotting, hah? Have you seen the Withnail and I? This was one of VERY few movies that we could not finish watching. I probably could have gone through 35 minutes of it, but my wife's reaction was fierce and it was all over in 20.
Interesting, too, the choice between the Platoon and the FMJ... I have resolved that dilema differently. And It's a Mad, Mad.... - there is nothing guilty about enjoying that timeless classic...
I trully appreciate your list and wish I could put together mine - I am not as well ogranized, unfortunately. But you now got me going, so perhaps some time...
I am sure you threw in the Potemkn just to tease me... although that pram-on-the-steps sceene is one you can never forget. And you MUST be heavy into meditation (I think you mentioned before that you are) to appreciate the dead-bugs-crawl-faster-than-this Ikiru.
And how could you have possibly forgotten the Porky's?
