okay I admit for a harlot she is sweet, but she still demands money when you come to see her!
I am so sorry

I've heard that while it's not as good as Miyazaki's best (which I say is Spirited Away but others say is Princess Mononoke or Nausicaa) it's very good.

New Jim Jarmusch starring Bill Murray as the same character he's played in every movie since Rushmore? I'm there.
As for my own picks, has anyone seen "How to Get Ahead in Advertising" ?

--- Quote from: KharBevNor ---Oh! Everyone should see Nosferatu and Metropolis. Even if Silent films make you claw out your own eyes, they will be worthily sacrificed eyes.

"The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" is also ace & viewing it should earn you a goth point. "M" is also apparently very good but I haven't got round to watching it yet.

Ok, if we're getting into silent films you can't leave out Murnau's "Sunrise" and "The Last Laugh."
Mary Pickford's "Stella Maris" opened my eyes because it has a morbid ending that I didn't expect from a silent staring America's first sweetheart. She also plays dual roles and it's fun to see how they pull it off 90 years ago.
One of my favorites that's also deliciously morbid is Victor Sjöström's "He Who Gets Slapped" starring Lon Chaney. Beautiful visuals and no one gets cosmically crapped on quite like the heroes in a Chaney tragedy.
KharBevNor:
If we're talking about multiple roles.
KIND HEARTS AND CORONETS
One of the greatest films ever. Alex Guinness is eight different people in it.
