#39. Watch the 100 Movies to See Before You Die


I have found finalising this list has been quite difficult.

There are so many Top 100 or Top 1000 lists on the net, but am not sure which one to pick.

So what I thought I would do is start with a Top 10 of two Australian movie critics that I admire very much, Margaret and David.

They recently celebrated 25 years together and put together a Top 10 list of their favourite films.

Here is what they listed as the best of the last 25 years:

Margaret:

Blue Velvet (1986)

In the Mood for Love (2000)

Touching the Void (2003)

The Indian Runner (1991)

In the Cut (2003)

Brokeback Mountain (2005)

All about My Mother (1999)

21 Grams (2003)

Reservoir Dogs (1992)

Toy Story 3 (2010)


David:

Distant Voices, Still Lives (1988)

Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989)

The Player (1992)

All About My Mother (1999)

Being John Malkovich (1999)

The Circle (2000)

Lantana (2001)

The Lord of the Rings trilogy

Brokeback Mountain (2005)

Gran Torino (2008)

And here is their favourite films of all time:
 
Margaret:
Nashville (1975)
David:
Singin' in the Rain (1952)

Some I have seen already, but there is no harm in watching them again is there?

So the challenge is on... I'll let you know how I go
