Apparently I need to be educated. :)
So you know, I'm still awaiting instruction regarding your previous posts.
Rules of the Game? Seriously? I have issues with movies that are being written as they're being filmed!
Battleship Potempkin I understand because of it's cultural significance, but I really have a distaste for Russian silent films.
The rest aren't bad choices, Jeff. You've inspired me. Maybe I should do a post like this on my blog. . .
I'm glad that The General made it onto all three of your lists. I do so love that movie. Good Old Buster Keaton, now there was a man who understood comedy.
