I think my favorite film is Jurassic Park.
Its not the "best" film I have seen but for the memories and the giddy excitment of seeing it, it will always hold a spot for me.
The music, the first panning shot over a field full of amazing looking dinosours, the build up to the T-rex |

Another good one was on one of the film channels the other night
"Breaker Morant"
With the epic closing line "shoot straight you bastards" though in last showing that line was cut..
Another good WW1 film is "Australian light horse" about the last ever cavalry charge at bathsheba..
Ps just before any smart alick jumps in Breaker Morant is about the boer war.. |

"The Wanderers..don't fuck with the baldies.
The champ would have got a tear outta a glass eye"
Loved the wanderers- never understood why folk preferred the warriors out around the same time.......the soundtrack alone was brilliant ! |

The Warriors was nowhere near as good and as you said the soundtrack was fantastic! Hard to pick a fav tune from it but if pushed id have to go for 'my boyfriends back' or maybe even 'big girls don't cry' oh I couldn't pick lol |

For me it HAS become "Joker".
A truly unmissable modern day masterpiece. This is edgy and raw. It makes you think. It is not a piece of entertainment but an experience that none should miss. |
