THE LAST STARFIGHTER (1984)
An alien scalawag who recruits a young video game expert into a real live-or-die battle in outer space.
This is considered by some to be the greatest movie ever made. It was The Beatles of movies. The first to do this the first to do that. It had a lot of firsts. It is a complete masterpiece for the ages.
Citizen Kane(from 1941)
- Wikipedia....
A critical success, Citizen Kane failed to recoup its costs at the box-office. The film faded from view soon after but its reputation was restored, initially by French critics and more widely after its American revival in 1956. There is a semi-official consensus among film critics that Citizen Kane is the greatest film ever made, which has led Roger Ebert to quip: "So it's settled: Citizen Kane is the official greatest film of all time."
It topped both the AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movies list and the 10th Anniversary Update, as well as all of the Sight & Sound polls of the 10 greatest films for nearly half a century. _________________ https://www.facebook.com/groups/moviesnshows/?ref=bookmarks
Wicked film crew, lost in the jungle for 2 and a half years, busting through every deadline and budget limit, struggling with their addictions and egos, they came out of it all with a pretty awesome movie.
The greatest war movie that I will ever see. This movie was so amazing.
Saving Private Ryan
- Wikipedia....
The film was later nominated for eleven Academy Awards, with wins for Best Cinematography, Best Sound, Best Sound Editing, Best Editing, and Best Director for Spielberg, but lost the Best Picture award to Shakespeare in Love, being one of a few that have won the Best Director award without also winning Best Picture.
The film also won the Golden Globes for Best Picture – Drama and Director, the BAFTA Award for Special Effects and Sound, the Directors Guild of America Award, a Grammy Award for Best Film Soundtrack, the Producers Guild of America Golden Laurel Award, and the Saturn Award for Best Action/Adventure/Thriller Film.[38] In June 2008, the American Film Institute revealed its "Ten Top Ten"—the best ten films in ten "classic" American film genres—after polling over 1,500 people from the creative community. Saving Private Ryan was acknowledged as the eighth best film in the "epic films" genre.
