Movies you should see...HELP!
I'm making a list of movies that I think my daughter should see. She's 30-years-old, lawyer, single with BF, and pretty sophisticated. I'm not necessarily shooting for the "Greatest movies ever made", just a list of movies that I really liked and saw lots of time because IMO they are just good.
Please look over it and add your choices: The Godfather (1972) Director: Francis Ford Coppola Cast: Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan Tootsie (1982) Director: Sydney Pollack Cast: Dustin Hoffman, Jessica Lange, Bill Murray To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) Director: Robert Mulligan Cast: Gregory Peck, John Megna, Frank Overton Raging Bull (1980) Director: Martin Scorsese Cast: Robert De Niro, Cathy Moriarty, Joe Pesci Chinatown (1974) Director: Roman Polanski Cast: Jack Nicholson, Faye Dunaway, John Huston Apocalypse Now (1979) Director: Frances Ford Coppola Cast: Martin Sheen, Marlon Brando, Sam Bottoms The Sting (1973) Director: George Roy Hill Cast: Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Robert Shaw Harold and Maude (1971) Director: Hal Ashby Cast: Bud Cort, Ruth Gordon, Vivian Pickles Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Director: George Roy Hill Stars: Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Katharine Ross Blazing Saddles (1974) Director: Mel Brooks Stars: Cleavon Little, Gene Wilder, Slim Pickens Catch-22 (1970) Director: Mike Nichols Stars: Alan Arkin, Martin Balsam, Richard Benjamin | M*A*S*H (1970) Director: Robert Altman Stars: Donald Sutherland, Elliott Gould, Tom Skerritt |
