ks - I don't think you're a ponce, but if you're flouncing, you can flounce over to my house with your video collection.

papillon · 27/03/2004 10:36

Bladerunner is a classic

wasn't it just PPH?

donnie · 27/03/2004 14:05

too many to remember all in one go but I reckon the best film ever made is The Outlaw Josey Wales - utterly brilliant!

SenoraPostrophe · 27/03/2004 14:43

How about:

Delicatessen
As Good as it Gets
The Hudsucker Proxy ?

Others in my top 10 are:
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Amelie
Fargo
The Shawshank Redemption
Life of Brian
The Princess Bride

and, erm...Cassablanca I guess.

(haven't seen many of the films on here... will have to get down the video shop)

LucyJones · 27/03/2004 14:47

How about A Few Good Men - bloody excellent film....

spacemonkey · 27/03/2004 14:54

agree with As Good As It Gets and Delicatessen ... both brilliant
