Here is my list of The top 10 movies you need to watch (I love my TCM BTW)

10 . The Conversation (Gean Hackman)-1974 American mystery thriller film written, produced and directed by Francis Ford Coppola and starring Gene Hackman (BTW I met Gean Hackman - great guy)

9. The Game -1997 American mystery thriller film directed by David Fincher, starring Michael Douglas and Sean Penn, - (Great movie and FYI it gets stressful)

8. Barton Fink-1991 American independent period psychological thriller film written, produced, edited and directed by the Coen brothers.- (Love this movie and its pacing. Watch out for Chet!!)

7. Rear Window - A1954 American Technicolor mystery thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock and written by John Michael Hayes - (This movie captures New York at a time I wish I was alive)

6.Sunset Boulevard - a 1950 American film noir directed and co-written by Billy Wilder, and produced and co-written by Charles Brackett.  (Gloria Swanson as Norma Desmond is true Hollywood with an unforgettable performance)

5.Jurassic Park - a 1993 American science fiction adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg and produced by Kathleen Kennedy and Gerald R. Molen.(( A true favorite and love Jeff Goldblum as Dr. Ian Malcolm  FYI  He was spotted at Buzz and Neds a few months ago)

4. The Empire Strikes Back - a 1980 American epic space opera film directed by Irvin Kershner and written by Leigh Brackett and Lawrence Kasdan, based on a story by George Lucas. (FYI  A friend of mine got kicked out if a Richmond Braves game by an umpire one time on star wars night at the Diamond. The newspaper headline the next day was "The umpire Strikes back" LOL)

3.Back to the Future Part II -a 1989 American science-fiction film directed by Robert Zemeckis and written by Bob Gale.( I can watch this movie over and over again.)

2.The Shining - a 1980 psychological horror film produced and directed by Stanley Kubrick and co-written with novelist Diane Johnson.  Based on Stephen King's 1977 novel,( King never liked the movie.  To me it is one of the best ever. )

 

Now the big one!!!!!!

1.Back to the Future -a 1985 American science fiction film directed by Robert Zemeckis and written by Zemeckis and Bob Gale.

(Anyone who knows me will no be surprised with this one. Cinematography ,costumes, acting , plot and sure brilliance makes this one of the best movies of all time. There was a comic book convention that was supposed to take place in Washington DC this year and they’re having most of the cast members for autographs and pictures. I still hope this takes place. It’s on my bucket list.)

 

Hope you get sometime to relax and watch some of these!!!
