What Do You Like?

I've finally stepped into the 21st century and acquired a Netflix subscription. Now I need some movies to fill up my queue. I'm pretty current on recent movies but I didn't watch a lot of movies when I was growing up.

I just watched Sixteen Candles a couple of days ago. It was good but I don't think my life would have been changed if I'd have seen it when I was younger.

So, People, what are some of your favorites?

    Once Upon a Time in America (Long version)

    Driving Miss Daisy

    The Shawshank Redemption - an absolutely must-see

    Holes - yep, a kids movie, sure... but it goes beyond taht

    O Brother, Where Art Thou? - made me really, really appreciate George Clooney's versatility - of course, until this, I didn't know he had any

    The Perils of Gwendoline in the Land of the Yik-Yak. It got re-released on DVD last year. It's like 20 years old and its so bad it good.

    Joey, it's funny that you mention A Clockwork Orange - I started that last night as my first movie to watch online with Netflix. Haven't finished it yet though.
