"
Gladiator" is the ultimate guy film, I absolutely loved it! "Memento" was my first taste of Christopher Nolan's
brilliance. Tom Hanks was perfectly cast in "
Cast Away". Cameron Crowe's
semi-autobiographic "Almost Famous" is a tremendous coming of age film. I loved the way
Steven Soderberg tied several parallel stories together to show the horrors of America's drug war in "
Traffic". "O Brother, Where Art Thou" is one of the Coen Brothers best
films, that's saying a lot.
Best in Show" is a hilarious look at a national dog show, much of it's improvised too. "
Remember The Titans" is an excellent football film with a nice dose of social commentary. "
Billy Elliot" is about a boy growing up in a tough mining town in the northern UK who wants to do nothing but ballet dance, it's funny, it's heartfelt, it's rough around the edges, it's just a great movie. "
Erin Brockovich" tells the story of single mother turned legal assistant who decides to take on a power conglomerate that is polluting a city's water supply, great
story, great
acting, great
direction.
