100 Movies You Should See Before You Die!

Ladies and gents, here is a list of 100 movies that you should see before you die. It just so happens that I am a movie buff [Well, okay, I'm a fanatic.] This list is entirely subjective and there is no particular logic or order to it—and it encompasses almost every genre from romantic comedies to drama to westerns. It also spans from the 1920s to modern times. If you are a movie buff and have not seen any given title that captures your interest---drop by your Block Buster tonight. If you are simply looking for a good recommendation for a good flick, use this list as your holy reference. The list here is comprised of films that I personally thought were brilliant or merely entertaining. Google a title you like and get a fuller picture of the movie.

The list is largely comprised of plot driven stories, but sometimes I have been taken by a film because of its direction, cinematography or acting. It's all here! Well, actually, this list is hardly exhaustive--but feel free to include other films that one should see before we all die!

Finally, keep this in mind: If God existed, he would have personally approved of this list. If you don’t like a film that I have suggested, the problem is with you...and not my sanctified writ. :nuke:

Hi everybody, this is my first post. i'm a little nervous so please bear with me.

My older brother by 3 years seemed to be like Victor as he could draw very adult looking

characters when very young. He could also look at something and practically draw the scene

without looking at it very many times. This does not answer inate or learned ,but this was such

a interesting subject, it grabbed my attention.

I am a practicing Ojectitivist and am very happy to be a member of this group .
