I think you’ll enjoy All About Eve when you get to it. Actually there are very many on this list you’ve yet to see that you will likely admire. I’m surprised your sister hasn’t gotten you to watch Singing in the Rain – wouldn’t that be her style? Such a fun classic. Sure, it’s not dark and edgy…

You’ve been making a ton of progress since the last time I checked on this list.

Days of Heaven is a must add. I agree with the Kurosawa comments: Ikiru, Rashomon and Ran (his version of Shakespeare’s King Lear from 1985) are must sees. Need more Kubrick as well: The Killing and Paths of Glory. Oh and Welles lost masterpiece, Touch of Evil (the opening shot, which lasts several minutes, is a thing of beauty). I really enjoyed The Big Clock (remade as No Way Out in the 80s). Lots more, but that should be plenty.

@ EFT3 – Great suggestions, man. I would also have put all four of those suggestions on the list. Especially fanny and Alexander, my favorite of all his works besides Cries and Whispers, and Winter Light. While I’ve seen basically everything available on DVD for Bergman, I haven’t seen anything by Kurosawa. Awful, right?

Bergman, while represented on this list, should certainly be a stronger presence (Kurosawa as well!)

I would suggest that you watch the following:

BERGMAN: Wild Strawberries, The Silence, The Virgin Spring, and FANNY AND ALEXANDER (his true masterpiece)

KUROSAWA: Ikiru, Highs and Lows, and Rashomon are all must-sees

@ Alexandra – Thanks for all the suggestions! I’ve seen a few of those like 12 Angry Men, Cool Hand Luke and All That Heaven Allows. But I’ll add the others post haste.

12 Angry Men, Days of Wine and Roses, Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, Cool Hand Luke, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, The Odd Couple, Thre Faces of Eve, and All That Heaven Allows should also be put on this list in my opinion
