Once Upon A Time In The West… The 3 men waiting for the train. The Train wipes to reveal Charles Bronson playing the harmonica. Each character Bronson, Henry Fonda and Jason Robards are given these dramatic reveals to their characters at the start of the film… Brilliant
I can’t put mine in any particular order of best to worst so just in point form
- Happy-Go-Lucky
- Blindness
- The Dark Knight
- Vicky Christina Barcelona
- Milk
- A Christmas Tale
- Encounters at the End of the World
- In Bruges
- Changeling
- Synecdoche, New York
- Burn After Reading
- Ballast
- W.
- Slumdog Millionaire
Still haven’t seen them all… Looking forward to Gran Torino, The Wrestler, and The Reader, which will probably also make my list.
In Canada we do not have a film history like italian neorealism, the french new wave, german expressionism and the american classic cinema… so what are the best films that have come out of Canada?
Thanks for the flag… I can’t believe this; on a website that essentially promotes free speech and free thinking you had to go and cry about my little comment (who’s the nihilist now cry baby)
Now in regard to the article in question: I think Adam just would like for anyone to basically write their thoughts and opinions on the articles’ topic and/or anything in relation to it. So you might be asking why I am not doing that now, because I just talked to Adam about it…it doesn’t take much to figure out what the intention was.
I keep returning to My Darling Clementine. You don’t find too much in book stores about this film, yet is widely discussed by film makers and people alike.
This is an extremely subtle and somewhat mysterious western.
Basically I am interested in my own curiosity about why I keep coming back to this film, but I am also wondering how others feel about it and what makes it such a great film? as Roger Ebert calls it John Ford’s greatest western
