Well I count it as a personal triumph that I have one on my list in common with Rick. Butch Cassidy is not only superbly acted and written, but it was gorgeously filmed...

Clockwork Orange (it's like only one of the best movies ever made)
Harold and Maude (just so out there and 70s. always makes me cry)
Nashville (Altman at his finest)
Sunset Blvd. (ahem)
North by Northwest (ahem ahem)
M (an excellent study in paranoia and German Expressionism)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (the most perfect action film there is)
The Exorcist (wonderfully acted, great writing, and creepy)
Yellow Submarine (BLUE MEANIES!!!)
Roma (art)
Seven Beauties (the tone of this film is watch makes it an excellent watch)
Aguirre, the Wrath of God (the most depressing German movie ever)
Last Year at Marienbad (this probably is in my favourite favourite list.  I aspire to be Resnais).
Memento (written and directed by someone who definitely was a Resnais fan)
Kawaidan (I watch this every Halloween.  Beautifully done Japanese creepy stories)
The Ring (Original)
Old Boy (probably the best Korean film ever)
The Matrix (just good stuff)
Music of the Spheres (Canadian and you'll never find it and if you do then tell me)
Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris (surreal musical revue)
The Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome (Anger) (only for the most daring artists among you)
Vixen (Myers) (the most intelligent soft core film ever made)
The Devils (my favourite Russell film - he got it very right with this one)
Picnic at Hanging Rock (Australian schoolgirls who mystically disappear during a St Valentines day outing)  
Bad Boy Bubby (you have to see this one to understand why it's here)
Pink Flamingos (my favourite to show new friends and watch their reaction)
Singing in the Rain (puts a smile on my face)

That's enough for now.
