First of all, don't feel too bad about this. Being a film buff is much more about the desire to see movies, than what movies you've seen, especially when you're younger. I'm far older than you, and have still not seen tons of movies. And I seriously doubt that there's anyone here who doesn't have huge gaps in what they've seen.
Here's my 10 recommendations:
THE APARTMENT
REAR WINDOW
THE GODFATHER
CASABLANCA
CITIZEN KANE
STAR WARS
DR. STRANGELOVE
RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK
NORTH BY NORTHWEST
SOME LIKE IT HOT
BTW, be absolutely certain to see #5 on Steve's list ASAP!
