Going on the understanding that "5" means one more than "4" and one less than "6", I'll toss out these ones in no particular order.

In the Bedroom
Far From Heaven (I'm gratified to see this mentioned several times)
25th Hour
Talk to Her
Heaven (Tykwer)

Which means I agreed with Brook on 2 out of 5. Hmmm.

My favorites....

Brokeback Mountain
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Moulin Rouge
Shrek
Chicago

Me too. I think it's really underrated and deserved to win best picture. My personal pick would have been Adaptation, but of the movies that were nominated for best picture that year, I thought it was the one most worthy of that honour. I figure "Chicago" won over it simply for being less "dark". "25th Hour" is awesome too, I like it much more than "Do the Right Thing"...I think it's right up there with "Malcolm X" as one of Spike Lee's greatest movies.
