Kubrick’s Science Fiction masterpiece is more of a grand artistic statement than a movie. I love it so much.

DAZED AND CONFUSED (1993)
Teens hang on the last day of school, 1976, in Austin, Texas. Not much happens. Mostly in a good way, I promise.
SHAFT (1971)
He’s a Black private dick who’s a sex machine with all the chicks, but I found his movie not as interesting as one might think.
SHOAH (1985)
An absolutely essential first-person historical document about one of the worst events in history.
DOUBLE INDEMNITY (1944)
Perhaps the ultimate Film Noir, about two murderers who are not nearly as smart as they think they are.
THE WILD BUNCH (1969)
A violent, nihilistic revisionist Western that changed how violence was shown on-screen.
PRINCESS MONONOKE (1997)
A gorgeous animation classic that is firmly for adults, about the eternal struggle between humans and their environment.
THE GOLD RUSH (1925)
Charlie Chaplin’s biggest hit is also probably my favorite of his movies that I’ve yet seen.
FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH (1982)
A surprisingly down-to-earth and enjoyable movie about a bunch of 80s teens who have no idea what they’re doing.
DR. STRANGELOVE OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB (1964)
A spectacular, hilarious comedy about the end of the world.
