This list has definitely changed: in retrospect, Inglourious Basterds was a generous 5th, and given the films I've seen over the last few months I'd say it would now look like:
6. 8 1/2
5. Mulholland Drive
4. Fargo
3. Paris, Texas
2. 2001
1. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Honourable mentions would be The 39 Steps (my favourite Hitchcock film) and The Lighthouse, which I saw recently and thought was excellent. I'll be seeing Parasite next week and that looks very promising!

this is so weird, i swear we have some sort of telepathic connection!... today i was literally discussing seeing The 39 Steps with my mum as apparently it's on TV some point this week, today I was also talking about seeing Parasite with my colleague and had read a review on The Lighthouse due to apparently having a similar vibe to 2001!

Lol that is strange - I watched the 39 steps after the book was a pub quiz round and I was somewhat mesmerised by it - in the same way as I was mesmerised by Fritz Lang's Metropolis, both of which seem to have a quality which makes their age seem more of a characterful quirk than an audiovisual hindrance. Also, my mate literally sent me a message today asking if I was also of the opinion that The Lighthouse is a Kubrickian masterpiece haha. The ending certainly is shot in a similar way, and in some sense, it has similar themes as 2001. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's like a Kubrick work, but it really is excellent and I would highly recommend it. As Kubrick said, 'the feel of the experience is the important thing, not the ability to verbalise or analyse it' - I think Robert Eggers delivers on that front.

Least someone agrees that it’s underrated😂
Pulp fiction
A star is born
Fatal attraction
Hangover
Bridget Jones
Titanic
My best films so far:

Forrest Gump
Gandhi
The Last Emporer
The Godfather part 2
Endgame
Selma

Especially the films Gandhi and Selma are precious pearls in my opinion, as they are very authebtically according to their main characters!
