The Bloggers With The Most To Say
20 Must See Movies....need your opinions!
So, I was having a debate the other night with a friend about must-see movies. (not necessarily your favorite, but movies that every one should see at some point in their lives.) He said more people would have overlaps with him, but I said I think more would overlap with me.
So what movies would you, 20 somethings, say are absolutely must-sees?
Mine are: (Not in an particular order)
Sabrina
Breakfast at Tiffany's
The Breakfast Club
Rent
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Across the Universe
The Princess Bride
The Last Castle
Love Story
The Shawshank Redemption
The Green Mile
Amelie
West Side Story
Slumdog Millionaire
Stand By Me
Away We Go
500 Days of Summer
Funny Face
Gone with the Wind
Pan's Labyrinth
Agree? Disagree? Movies you think should be there?

Having just seen Up! and Avatar recently, i would say these are two extremely good films. Up was actually genuinely moving and Avatar, while very over-rated by some, is one of the most spectacular movies you will ever see. Forget the storyline and try and wrap your brain around what you're seeing. Of all my movie-going experiences though i would have to say that Lord of the Rings - Return of the King still lands top of the pile.
