Moving to the DVD & Movie Discussion Forum :)

[Alan. b]

I too haven't seen any of the films that are mentioned on your list bar the two Indy films. There is plenty of other films that I have yet to see, if the subject of the film doesn't appeal to me then I will not watch them.

High Noon

There are probably tons of others but these are the ones that spring to mind.

[George vader]

All I can think of the the mo. is Lord Of The Rings.
Oh and ET!

[charlie angel]

Birth Of A Nation
Cleopatra
Les Enfants Du Paradis (Though I just bought this, so will be rectified soon)
English Patient


Those are a few that spring to mind - I expect there are loads of others though.

[Citysmith]

Some like it hot
African Queen (own but not watched yet)

Gotta go In Laws have come round

[Gary Couzens]

In no particular order...

A Fistful of Dollars
For a Few Dollars More
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Saturday Night Fever [I've always refused to watch the PG version]

The French Connection
French Connection II

The Sound of Music

La règle du jeu

Intolerance

Il Postino

The American Friend

Aparajito and The World of Apu [I did see Pather Panchali on TV about 20 years ago though I don't remember much of it]

...are the major commercial, arthouse and/or classic titles that spring to mind. Some of these have been bought on DVD (or in the case of Saturday Night Fever, cheap video copy in a sale) so should be removed from this list soon. The last two I seem to be fated not to see (despite several attempts - trains delayed, VCRs not working etc) but they do turn up on Film Four every so often.

Only one thought is, I will always have something to look forward to. I doubt I'll ever get to the stage when I have only new films to see for the first time...

I envy some of these 'not seens' - especially French Connection, Good bad ugly and Get Carter.
What a treat u have ahead of u!
