Brian Hackett
1) The Good, The Bad & The Ugly
Because simplicity can be one of the best forms of perfection. Wallach running away with the movie like there was a bounty on his head. Van Cleef giving us one of THE greatest badass entrances in cinematic history. Eastwood playing it with ease. Surprising moments of humanity from all three leads. The ecstasy of great cinema.

2) Seven Samurai
In any great director’s career, they can create both an epic AND a masterpiece, if they’re lucky. Though the 2 are not always one and the same, they certainly are in this case. Kurosawa crafted a story that was epic in scope and telling, but also personal. Toshiro Mifune and Takashi Shimura paved the way for historically great actor-director collaborations. The battle scenes are never too grandiose, reminding you the high price to be paid for spilt blood.

3) Inglourious Basterds
The film that reinvigorated both my love for Tarantino and my passion for movies, in all their 24-frames-per-second grandeur and beauty. Only the Tarantino-verse would have a film critic play an integral part in the story. Brad Pitt being the best kind of ham there is, but not overshadowing the revelation that is Waltz. Streudel and its great potency for tension. Viva Operation Kino.

4) Mad Max 2
Like number 1, it’s simplicity. Where Mad Max was a rock-solid character drama/psychological thriller, Mad Max 2 opts for more action. The final chase and the stunts in this film are a sight to behold. The Humungus is a bonafide all-time great movie villain.

5) Dawn of The Dead (1978)
Romero upped the grim ante provided at the end of Night of The Living Dead, both in sentiment and body count. Rather than give us a fortified world where humans turned back the undead tide, instead we’re given a look at society breaking down. For once, it looked like the good guys weren’t gonna win this one. Seeing how we all contribute to that fate is what really gives the film its raw power.

6) Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope
Time and cynicism have done nothing to dilute the joy this movie still brings me, though my love of it then and my love of it now are for 2 different reasons. The childhood awe and fascination and joy made this a treasure. Looking at it now, seeing all the influences and the unmitigated sense of wonder of all that is possible with science-fiction/fantasy, I will always cherish this movie.

7) My Neighbor Totoro
Yeah, it’s the movie that tops most Miyazaki rankings, by both the critics and the fans. And it’s not hard to see why. The unbridled joy and the sought-after innocence of childhood were never more accurately and beautifully rendered than they were here. The thrill of exploration and befriending gorgeous woodland creatures, creatures that would inspire only fear in the hearts and minds of adults. And of course, huggable fluffy Totoro.

8) Women On The Verge of A Nervous Breakdown
Many of Almodovar’s films are soap operas cranked up to the highest and greatest level possible, and the frenetic energy in this film is no exception, nor would I ask it to be. Carmen Maura, one of Pedro’s great muses, was never better. A commendable note must be made of the pro-women attitude of his films. Yes, his female characters are sometimes prone to hysterics, but it’s never played for a sign of weakness. Rather, it only reinforces their palatable strength. They may be betrayed or hurt, but they refuse to let it define them; a screenwriting trait that is still sorely lacking in this country.

9) Apocalypse Now (Theatrical Release)
An eerily effective examination of the horrors we’re capable of, both in times of war and against each other. Brando’s documented unraveling behind the scenes only adds to the marvel of his brief performance. His Kurtz is the perfect shattered mirror to the already-crumbling Willard. The whittling down of both the youth and the reason of the boat crew further isolate and insulate Willard from the outside world, until only he and his target/future remain, and the realization that only one dark heart will prevail.

10) Collateral
It’s the 2 lead performances that cement this film on this list. Cruise turns in a performance that is remarkably vicious and surprsingly open. Vincent is a character who will remain with you long after the film has ended. Foxx’s Max is a phenomenal foil to Vincent’s work and his nihilist philosophy. Seeing the impact these 2 men have on each other in the course of one beautifully shot night in LA is the stuff screenwriters aspire to. You’ll never look at cab drivers or their fare the same way again.

Kevin Sharp
In chronological order:
1. Out of the Past (Tourneur, 1947)
Because it would work as a love story, a hate story, or a mystery story, and yet it gives us all three.

2. The Apartment (Wilder, 1960)
Because it’s my favorite screenplay, my favorite Christmas movie, my favorite romantic comedy, and has one of my favorite female characters. (We can’t blame her for the explosion of Manic Pixie Dream Girls ever since.)

3. L’Avventura (Antonioni, 1960)
Because of two people watching a sunrise.

4. Manhattan (Allen, 1979)
Because, while Annie Hall will be the first thing shown in Woody’s obituary reel, to me this is his masterpiece.

5. Heat (Mann, 1995)
Because even though it’s too long, it’s stuffed with riches: the coffee shop, the house by the sea, the shootout, the balcony, the perfect marriage of image & music in the final shot.

6. The Thin Red Line (Malick, 1998)
Because of a conversation between Sean Penn and Jim Caviezel: “Do you ever get lonely?” “Only around people.”

7. Rushmore (Anderson, 1998)
Because the whole thing takes place in fall, the late season light lending a fabulous melancholy that both undercuts & enhances the storybook quality.

8. Lost In Translation (Coppola, 2003)
Because of the time in my life to which it brings me back.

9. Sideways (Payne, 2004)
Because of wine that’s tighter than a nun’s asshole. Because of an unpublished novel. Because of getting drunk and going to the dark side. Because of fucking Merlot.

10. Blade Runner: Final Cut (Scott, 1982/2007)
Because, for once, a director went back after 25 years and made a very good movie into a great one.

And if I have room to smuggle an extra in my underwear

10a. The Big Lebowski (Coens, 1998)
Because of this: “They’re not Nazis, Walter, they’re nihilists.” “Nihilists? Jesus. Say what you want about the tenets of National Socialism, at least it’s an ethos.”

I hate making top tens, so here’s a list of ten films I believe deserve more love. They are in alphabetical order.
1. Bringing Out the Dead (1999) – Hard to think about Scarecrow without thinking of its frequent visitor, the delightful Thelma Schoonmaker, editor for Martin Scorsese for most of his career. She cites this film as one she and Marty were surprised audiences didn’t respond to. It’s a harrowing, delirious, emotionally saturated film with one of Nicolas Cage’s greatest performances.
2. Dave Chappelle’s Block Party (2005) – More than a concert doc, this is a celebration of humanity that, for me, instantly lifts the spirits. Just don’t watch the version with extended music acts, it ruins the pacing.
3. Detention (2011) – Spoofs every high school cliche ever, from prom to body swapping, while also delivering honestly on the same teenage sentiment those films thrive on. Also ruthlessly skewers pop-culture nostalgia, and boasts both a bear planet and a “speed-of-text-message” editing style that makes Scott Pilgrim blush.
4. It’s Such a Beautiful Day (2012) – Everyone remembers Don Hertzfeldt’s Rejected (“My spoon is too big!”), but his magnum opus is this funny, bizarre, three-part nightmare about mental illness, made entirely without the use of computers. Incredibly moving.
5. Only Yesterday (1991) – My favorite Ghibli. A funny, sweet drama about a woman taking a quiet vacation at a relative’s farm, where she reminisces about her childhood.. Not availble in the United States because Disney is afraid of the characters’ talk about periods.
6. The Stunt Man (1980) – A surreal head trip that’s simultaneously creepy and funny, deftly playing with film, film reality, and reality reality until the viewer is sucked into the protagonist’s fever dream.
7. Speed Racer (2008) – The Wachowski’s eye-searing live-action adaptation of the famous anime is one of the most exhilarating sports movies ever made. Takes big, bold, kid-friendly emotional beats and plays them with as much vibrancy and emphasis as the film’s spectacular visuals. Also edited perfectly, weaving back and forth through a complex past-and-present structure with impressive ease.
8. Too Late for Tears (1949) – Lizabeth Scott gets trapped in a downward spiral that packs as many horrified gasps as shocked laughter at the wickedness of its twists and turns. Someday, the Film Noir Foundation’s beautiful restoration will replace public domain discs, but see it either way.
9. Youth of the Beast (1963) and the rest of the films of Seijun Suzuki – Seijun Suzuki is a genius. Saw Youth of the Beast totally by chance and was blown away by its dazzling, breakneck 1960s cool. Of course, Scarecrow has a Suzuki section. That’s why I love them.
10. Zorro (1975) – The same guy who starred in Le Samourai, Alain Delon, also played Zorro in a film previously doomed to the public domain. Recently, a Blu-ray came out with the complete cut, including a fantastic final swordfight. Anticipate the theme song sticking in your head for weeks.
