-Brazil

-Reqrieum for a Dream

-Mulholland Drive

-Braveheart

-400 Blows

-Clockwork Orange

-The Last Unicorn ..hehe,

-The Never-Ending Story

-The Red Violin

-Red

Blue

White (french film triad)

---it's weird that some of my favorites are films that I can't watch again or don't need to because they're that impacting.

yea Mulholland Drive is crrraazy. I had to study 400 Blows in my film class and from that I saw a truely beautiful film. There is soooooo much symbolism. What do you think of Clockwork Orange? Have you seen Reqrieum for a Dream?
