A Serbian Film. Close enough to a rom-com.



A serbian film is definitely the best movie I have ever seen.

A Streetcar Named Desire

It's old, but my God is Marlon Brando gorgeous :') Plus it's just generally a great film and Vivian Leigh is fantastic!



Agreed! :O
Rounders

Recommend this to all, especially if you're into surrealism.


Probably the weirdest film I have EVER seen but was very intriguing. Loved watching my entire film class squirm!
As for film recommendations, my favourite film is Lord Of War :smile:

Troy every time! Can literally sit through it replaying :smile:

Question: Troy or The Last King of Scotland?


Troy gets rid of the most interesting aspect of the Iliad (the gods, of course), but provides decent contemporary commentary on the Iraq war and some cool fight scenes.
Last King of Scotland features an inexplicably appraised performance that wouldn't feel out of place in a blaxpoitation film, and uses its true story aspect in a really flat way.
So neither is amazing, but Troy

are you looking to branch out into other genres or stick with the crime/thriller stuff?
if the former, go for the host (very entertaining monster film) and peppermint candy (brutally sad drama), i'm not a huge expert on the latter, though.





Thanks I will give those a look.

Surprised that nobody mentioned the Bourne Trilogy. I'm going to watch them all again( and probably again and again and again) so that I'm ready for Bourne Legacy.

I would go for the old Hitchcock movies like the rope and the trouble with Harry, also, Dracula is pretty good.
