@ David Grillo: The translation of the original French title of the ‘The 400 Blows’ actually means “to raise hell”, so in a way he DID call it something else.

As for this actual topic, I would say:

Through a Glass Darkly
Requiem for a Dream
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Robert Regan

The River.

It’s so good that it has been used at least twenty-five times, most notably by Jean Renoir and Frank Borzage.

Lost in Translation
Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter… and Spring
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Apocalypse Now
Gerry

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, probably. Long titles which still don’t say too much are always fun. Or simply ‘M’ by Fritz Lang.

8 1/2 is good
