Arrival
If ever there were a perfect movie, it’s this Amy Adams gem from Dune director Denis Villeneuve. The narrative is based on Story of Your Life, a Nebula-winning novella written by Ted Chiang, its themes exploring language barriers and bridging the gap between humanity and things we don’t understand. It’s heavy stuff for an alien drama, but trust us when we say it’s so, so worth your time.

"I love Arrival. Great movie."
You've got to be kidding. They're trying to communicate with an octopus, that just squirts ink.
Our "German Octopi Scientists" just aren't that advanced yet.

Please watch “The Red Shoes” on the biggest screen you can. It may be the most visually beautiful movie ever made.

I’ve never heard of “The Red Shoes.” I love that one. I need to watch it again - it’s been several years.

The greatest drama/love story ever put on film is not on this “list..” Casablanca.

I also thought The Professional should have made the list as well as The Conversation with Gene Hackman.

I probably should have included
Sound of Freedom as one of the best.
Another that I found shockingly good is Body Heat.

Citizen Kane. Godfather II, Lawrence of Arabia, Bridge on the River Kwai. I could go on but it’s not worth it.

I think you’re right; it’s important to see many works that may not be tagged “favorites” of the masses or “best of”, but which may still touch us profoundly as individuals, even a single scene. And it’s great to hear of the gems among the dreck coming out of the left coast.
People like you make FR the kaleidescope of fascinating information and opinion that it is. We can learn so much from one another. Thanks for your movie reviews, and perspectives on the midstates and captial region as well!
