This might be the closest agreement Jim and I have on one of these lists.

*1. Unforgiven - A (all-time top 20, best film of last 20-25 years)
*2. The Outlaw Josey Wales - A-
3. Play Misty For Me - A- (I was really surprised at how well this plays as a horror film)
4. High Plains Drifter - B+
5. Letters From Iwo Jima - B+
6. Mystic River - B+
7. A Perfect World - B
8. Bronco Billy - B (I liked it when I was a kid anyway)
9. Flags of Our Fathers - B-
10. Bird - B-
11. Million Dollar Baby - B-
12. Firefox - B- (I have vivid memories of seeing this at the drive-in with my Dad.)

Own: 2 (I sold 1 copy of Unforgiven, asked for the SE for Christmas/B-day and my Mom accidentally got me another copy of the old version which I still have sealed. I've never gotten around to getting the SE. Might buy Misty one of these days.)

I've seen Pale Rider but don't really remember it, I might have seen Honkytonk Man as well. Would like to see White Hunter Black Heart, Heartbreak Ridge, and rewatch Pale Rider.
