Senso is a film I considered singling out but didn't because it would be pretty hard for anyone to see it and I think Agee might be the only one here who's seen it. The first Italian Technicolor film, it is gorgeous and has one of the best looking battle scenes put on film but the existing DVD...

Thanks Agee, Odd Man Out has been on my list for awhile but I'll try and catch some of your others. And How Green Was My Valley I'll have to rewatch. I don't remember the cinematography as being nearly that impressive. Some Recommendations: Woman In The Dunes - Hiroshi Segawa, black and...

Thanks for leaving the poll open long enough for me to lose Steve. :) :) Russian Ark definitely requires multiple viewings. There is so much going on I know I couldn't absorb everything. Plus I saw it in a tiny theater smushed over to one side. I'm definitely getting the DVD whenever...

Just you Angelo :D Actually, I think the majority of people who've seen it in the "Movie" group probably agree with you. However, I thought it was an amazing meditative experience, not just confined to looking at artwork or certain events in Russian history but about the nature of art itself...

Agee forced my hand, Brook I recently saw another great addition too, L'Atalante. The Cine's name escapes me and I'm too lazy too look it up, but he eventually came to America and shot On The Waterfront.

I'll only vote if Agee does. Except for the 4 on his list I haven't seen, I could just as easily have picked any of Agee's except Gone with the Wind and Walkabout (which are very strong as well, I just don't hold them in quite the regard as the other films on either of our lists.) But several of...

Agee, by my count he has one more outstanding pick and none that I've seen that I'm not impressed with, while Walter has both The Piano and The Devil's Backbone that I don't think are anything special.

very close, but I'll go with Walter too, he's got some of the famous big guns, but what puts him over the top (because Justin has excellent choices too) are Days Of Heaven and I Am Cuba.

Agee

I'll vote for me. :b John has some excellent choices like Metropolis, The Elephant Man, Dr. Zhivago, and City of Lost Children but a few that aren't my cup of tea and 5 I haven't seen. I saw 2 beautifully shot films last night, Picnic At Hanging Rock and Effi Briest. Effi especially has great...

Rain The Big Lebowski - Roger Deakins :emoji_thumbsup: Children of Paradise - Marc Fossard & Roger Hubert :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup: The Graduate - Robert Surtees - Even JFK - Robert Richardson :emoji_thumbsup: Magnolia - Robert Elswit :emoji_thumbsup::emoji_thumbsup: O Brother...

John, I was thinking about Safe for my last pick but was trying to avoid having too many picks that people hadn't seen. That's also why I never picked a Fassbinder film or a modern Asian film like What Time Is It There?, Cure, Flowers Of Shanghai, A Scene At The Sea, or Fireworks. While...

Do The Right Thing - Ernest Dickerson

I thought this was already gone, but I don't see it on the master list, and feeling the need for something new I'll take: Russian Ark - Tillman Buttner

A Hard Day's Night - Gilbert Taylor

Woman In The Dunes - Hiroshi Segawa

West Side Story - Daniel L. Fapp And another "good call on Scarlet Empress Agee" :D

Sorry, didn't check in last night. Justin, I think Opera is his 2nd best shot movie, but Inferno is a good choice too Mater Suspirorum.... High Noon - Floyd Crosby

No it wasn't safe Agee, but it was Walter that took it. Then Justin grabbed another off my list. Better get this one before Justin takes it too: Suspiria - Luciano Tovoli

Good one John (why didn't I think of that one?) Also realized I completely forgot about the film I was going to take next. Hope Agee doesn't grab it before it gets back to me.

M - Fritz Arno Wagner

Wha, huh? Oh, I fell asleep waiting for Rain. :D Taxi Driver - Michael Chapman

Thanks Steve, I figured if I waited long enough someone would look it up for me. ;)

Ran I'll have to look up the Cine's later.

C'mon John, what's taking so long?

Written On The Wind - Russell Metty

arrrggghh, I knew I should have picked Passion last round. Thought I could let it slide one more.

Rebecca - George Barnes

Aguirre, The Wrath Of God - Thomas Mauch

You know going 1-8, 1-8 gives the people at the top an unfair advantage, right Steve? Barry Lyndon - John Alcott
