Favorite: No Country for Old Men. It's my favorite because for me, it's so hard to find things wrong with it, and I love nearly every inch of the movie. Every time I watch it, I get sucked in, and every performance is perfect, exactly what it needs to be. An adaptation of one of my favorite books by my favorite author by my favorite directors (the Coens). The rest of my top 10(ish) moves around a lot, but this one has been the same since I saw it in 09. In No Order: American Beauty The Shining -- If I have to pick one Kubrick The Thing The Evil Dead Fargo The Social Network

Sorry it's hard to choose.

It really is. Good list. Especially American Beauty. I absolutely loved Kevin Spacey's character saying "fuck it" and start living his life as happy as he wanted it to be.

That's fine, I'll forgive you're multiple choice! I haven't actually seen No Country for Old Men. No idea why, never got round to it, but I've been told it's spectacular. Will definitely give it a watch now!
