Forgot to put that one on my list.

Great job, though you really should spend enough time to make sure that your "must see" movie titles are spelled correctly.
And 'Phenomenon' should never be included in a list of "must see" movies.
Tombstone — the single greatest cinematic achievement in all the entire recorded history of the world!
And let’s not forget that cinematic masterpiece, Stomp The Yard!
Okay, that 2nd one was a joke.
Has anyone SEEN it?
I agree, Lives of Others should be on these lists.
all three
This is Spinal Tap
Amadeus
Hotel Rwanda
Europa Europa
Gandhi
Chariots of Fire
28/35/42/49 UP

I would add -
Gladiator
The Magnificent Seven
Pale Rider
LOTR Triology
Great movie!
What About Bob?
