    Sci fi more accurate?

    The Quiet Man is a wonderful movie that introduces Ireland into modern motion pictures and electricity, lol. Stars John Wayne, Maureen Ohara and a beautiful Ford directed movie!

    The Magnificent Seven This has McQueen, Yule Brenner and Charles Bronson!

    Bullitt The car chase scene in this movie is amazing. If anything just watch it for that!!!

    The Water Gardens are only in a couple of scenes but you can recognize them right away. Yeah, it's a cool movie.

    They're both very good movies. Also interesting to see Pacino and DeNiro as young actors.

    Slap Shot is fantastic. I also like Logan's Run.

    The first two Godfather movies are brilliant - and as usual I agree with WP about watching Pacino and DeNiro.

    Cabaret is also - believe it or not - really good filmmaking. Bob Fosse does such a good job. The scene in the beer garden... pretty spectacular.

    Speaking of Fosse, Lenny with Dustin Hoffman is a solid biopic.

    Those are SO chadwick-y films.

    Papillon is one of my favorites.

    Tip o'the hat to you, sir.

    Speaking of harsh prisons, Midnight Express. Intense.

    Now that David Bowie is no longer with us, I have to mention a big guilty pleasure of mine, Into The Night. So many cameos in this movie. It's not too different from movies like Something Wild and After Hours.

    Plus, Michelle Pfeiffer nude from head to toe. :grin:

    Just saw an old movie on Starz today as well, Jagged Edge with Jeff Bridges, Glenn Close and the recently deceased Robert Loggia in his Oscar nominated performance.

    Speaking of David Bowie...

    Cat People was a great flick with an awesome song performed by Bowie (Putting Out Fire).
