Must See TV


The following is my list of top movies you must rent - and view in full - to consider yourself truly cool. Some pix are obvious, some perhaps not. But if you want a crash course in cool movies, this is it. These are in no particular order, because it's too hard to rank them as they are cool and great in very different ways.

Amelie
Ma Vie En Rose
Krzysztof Kieslowski's trilogy: Red, White and Blue (3 different movies but I'm counting as one)
Cinema Paradiso
Donnie Darko
American Beauty
The Cook, The Wife, the Thief and His lover
Virgin Suicides
Pulp Fiction
Reservoir Dogs
The Third Man
Mommy Dearest (made for TV but still counts in my book)
Smoke & Blue in The Face (I'll count as one, they are sort of sequels)
The Out of Towners - the original with Jack Lemmon
The Station Agent
Pan's Labyrinth
Oh Brother Where Art Thou
Raising Arizona
and anything by John Hughes

Get your queues filled now people! Any thoughts on additions?

  1. Sweetie - love your movie picks but must correct you. "The Cook, The Thief, HIS Wife and HER Lover" One of my early dates with Ken so I remember it fondly... Keep up the cool blog. I aspire to be so cool....
