Bio: Read my full reviews here! http://mymoviemusings.wordpress.com

I like just about anything; I have my preferences (I find myself leaning towards crime, noir, and epics), but I'm not an extremely discriminate moviewatcher. Chances are, if it's a classic and/or well-received by most, I'll probably like it, so I guess I'm kind of predictable. I also love anything with great cinematography and gorgeous visuals; my very favorites are populated by-and-large with movies that are, among their other merits, pleasing to the eye.

100 Apocalypse Now (1979) - Mar 05, 2007
Mini-Review: My favorite film; a surreal, haunting, visually flamboyant masterpiece. It's one great sequence linked to another, from the "Ride of the Valkyries" bombing to the incredibly nightmarish scenes at the Do Luong bridge. ("Who's your commanding officer?" "Ain't you?") No other movie so freely embraces its own insanity, and it all works to brilliant effect. Some movies transcend their genres; this one transcends its medium. This is the end...
85 Midnight Cowboy (1969) - Mar 01, 2007
Mini-Review: Roger Ebert called this "a great movie trapped inside a good one." I think it's an amazing movie trapped inside a great one. Yes, there are flaws - the superfluous party and fantasy sequence, notably, as well as the unnecessarily ambiguous flashback scenes - but when this movie is at its best, depicting the sad, desolate lives of Buck and Rizzo as they struggle to make ends meet, it penetrates like few other movies. Fantastic.
