The Great Movies Game

[QueenofSmirks]

Here's how it works: In alphabetical order, each person lists a great movie (obviously, this will be subjective since we all have different ideas of what "great" is) :)

I'll go first... Agnes of God (Jane Fonda, Meg Tilly, Anne Bancroft; 1985)

Now the next person will list a "great" movie starting with the letter B... and so on...

Have at it! :)

I love Spike Lee's films, but Spike should have left this one alone.

I highly recommend you see Park Chan-wook's version, if you haven't done so already.

The one by Chan-wook is the best film I've seen on revenge (and how revenge serves no one!), bar none. It's one of the most disturbing films I've seen, but it was damn good and stayed with me for weeks.

I thought Spike was too obvious and that lessened the impact for me. I'on't know why Spike remade this ... maybe he had money to burn.

I totally agree! I loved the original but thought most people would be familiar with the latest version. Disturbing, thought provoking, dark, intense and an utterly brilliant story from start to finish. I also wonder why Spike touch this classic film, he was probably trying to appeal to a mass audience, I think he totally ruined ambiance and suspense....especially the ending.
