Good Movies You would Recommend Others to Watch

I loved watching the Elephant Man...until the very end I was hoping he would return to the doctor....the story is so stark and gritty....i love the end piece that is played as he dies...it's the same one played in "Platoon", it is called "Adagio for Strings" another must see...I have heard that both mulholland drive and blue velvet to be quite creepy and adult...so i don't think i'd watch them...still im very surprised this movie is by Lynch...i guess it is the epitome of the carnivalesque...

Adagio for Strings: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsyTOW4cYvA
On a much lighter note I watched "Little Miss Sunshine" and recommend it as well...truly a laugh and delight...though a bit crude it's cute as well and a real tongue-in-cheek critique of beauty pageants :lol:


Has any one seen Pan's Labyrinth yet? I want to know how it is before I see it, I have quite high expectations for it. Please post your comments on it, if you have seen it. :D

Have u got the movie Le Dinne de cons

end dig//

Q: PL is one heck of a movie. It impressed even a fantasy hater like me :P Must watch, IMO 8-)

Great: No. Have you seen that? Is it any good? Coz the reviews arent so good :oops:

yes Nerd I have seen that movie twice . I really enjoyed that movie

the good bad and the ugly- great!

BABEL - Nice one....one doubt...whats written in the paper written by thejapanese girl to the detective in the climax!

that plot is not necessary

Hey Thimuru :D I heard that Babel was apart of a trilogy (but can be watched as standing alone) did you see the previous two movies?... Amores Perros and 21 Grams....I know there was a lot of praise for 21 grams...can you (or any other hubber) please just comment on the other two movies....or maybe even give a short synopsis???? :D

no querida..i havent watched those movies...

21 grams is said to be very good

I've seen 21 Grams, its very good :thumbsup:

I have seen all the 3 movies :P Its basically a trilogy exploring the heart and its emotions. Ameros Perros is my most favorite in this trilogy, followed by 21 grams and babel. Superb trilogy, must watch 8-)

Seems the elephant man makeup took 12 hours to apply each time .

I think you should've read the other trivia on IMDB too. This movie was the reason for the creation of Best Makeup category in the Oscars.
