One of those questions methinks where my answer would be different every time the question was asked. Nevertheless:
- On the Waterfront
- Dances with Wolves
- The Name of the Rose
- Mississippi Burning
- Soylent Green
- The Shawshank Redemption
- The Lives of Others (German)
- A Man for All Seasons
- The Godfather trilogy
- The Lord of the Rings trilogy
I've tried to present a range of genres, but no comedy (not a genre I generally like that much).
