here are ten that i think of immediately:- before sunset- far from heaven- hamlet (dir. almereyda)- memories of murder- no such thing- platform- russian ark- the son- turning gate- yi yi
(some others really really stick in my head, a few of which i'm not even certain what i think of. some of them made me very angry in a way that ultimately seems kind of productive: american pyscho, bully, cast away, crimson gold, esther kahn, eureka, fat girl, japon, millennium mambo, the royal tenenbaums, scarlet diva, waking life...)

i haven't seen very many of these movies. i find it even harder to make movie lists than i do to make music lists (though i'd say i see and think less about movies).

and probably my only original choice: Open Range. I dont know if it will hold up over time, but both times i saw it i really enjoyed it. i hope it gets a long life some place like TNT or USA playing weekend afternoons in the spring when football is over. it seems to belong there.
