The Fountainhead (1949)

Just a bad movie.

Note line 31: “Enjoy These Right Wing Classics!”
Well I will, as soon as you define all others as “left wing classics.” I will not hold my breath.

A lotta good ones for sure. I’d put one that’s omitted at the top: “Doctor Zhivago” (1965)

I love Gran Torino! One of the best movies ever.

Hate anything with Tom Hanks. One of the creepiest men that ever lived.

I would add, the 2016 Mel Gibson directed film: HACKSAW RIDGE.

It is a war film that tells the extraordinary true story of Desmond Doss, a conscientious objector who served as a medic during World War II without ever carrying a weapon. The film follows Doss, portrayed brilliantly by Andrew Garfield, from his humble beginnings in rural Virginia to the battlefields of Okinawa, Japan. Doss’s unwavering commitment to his principles, faith, and his determination to save lives, even amidst the brutal horrors of war, forms the heart of this remarkable tale.

Definitely a movie worth seeing.

And while we’re at it, Add the recent hit film THE SOUND OF FREEDOM starring Jim Caviezel to the list. That the lot of left-wingers hate the movie for no good reason is a testament to its conservatism.

What about “The Passion Of The Christ” or “Schindler’s List”?

RE: Death Race 2000 with David Carradine and Sly Stallone.

I remember it.
Good solution to the return of Leftist sitdown strikes blocking traffic in the middle of streets or on bridges.
Scoring points.

Line I remember (I think) : “I’m sick of all this waiting. I’m losing my bloodlust.”

A much under-rated Roger Corman classic. Also Gopher from The Love Boat in a role.

I actually have seen very few except for Dirty Harry. Never even saw Forrest Gump.

THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE

THE BEST MAN

ADVISE AND CONSENT

OF THE I SING

STATE OF THE UNION

KEEPER OF THE FLAME

The above are ALL political movies, some about Dems and HOW devious and dirty they were/are.

THE CANDIDATE is absolutely DEM themed and though NOT a particularly good movie, shows the dark side of politics and "groomed" candidates who are just worthless puppets!
