Then another friend asked me what I thought of Paris, Texas and they were shocked when I said I had not seen that, either.Until recently, I was embarrassed to admit that I had never seen The Birth of a Nation. But I recently solved THAT problem.The list of films I haven't seen that I probably SHOULD see is so long I don't know where to begin, really. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanBuck Report post Posted July 17, 2005 Oh Peter! Miller's Crossing should really float to the top of your list. A stripped down mafia flick. The Coehns at their least pretentious. Good stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doug C Report post Posted July 18, 2005 Diane, you must rectify this as soon as possible. I can virtually guarantee you will love his work! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Russ Report post Posted July 18, 2005 I know! Diane, considering your willingness to engage Bergman's Scandinavian ponderings, I'd bet that Dreyer would leave footprints all over your Top Ten. It's like a lot of those same conflicts between the personal and spiritual realms writ large, but with something you can grab onto tightly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
