1 for 2 today. Have seen Jackie Brown and it's probably my favorite Tarantino mostly because it's based on an Elmore Leonard novel. It seems more mature and less gimmicky than his other films. Plus...

2 for 2 today and Strangers on a Train was my # 15 pick. I have another Hitchcock on my ballot which I'm pretty sure will also show up eventually.

2 for 2 today but neither was on my ballot. I never thought to include The Usual Suspects on my list. Maybe if it had been a Top 50 list.

I only managed 50% of those. Some are glaring omissions on my part but hey, personal preference wins out in the end I suppose.

Just now finished watching Pickup on South Street. I really liked it. Thelma Ritter was just so damn good in this. There was a bit of a lull there in the middle setting up Skip and Candy's dynamic...

I think you're getting The Killers and The Killing confused. I mentioned in my last post that I had picked a noir with a very similar title. It's an easy mistake to make.

1 for 2 and neither made my list.

Haven't seen Body Heat. Never felt the urge to do so and still don't.

I liked Nightcrawler well enough. I do think it requires a re-watch at some point though....
