Enemy (2013)
...Jesus, where do I even begin to start with this movie. First off, special thanks' to Arcanis for recommending this one. I don't think I'll be quite the same again, at least not for another week or two.
This movie is brilliant. An absolutely devastating look in to the mind of a man who is truly going insane. The way the film has been shot and put together like a puzzle definitely makes it a good challenge to stay on point, (it did take me a second viewing to get a good grasp on it all) but drops all the subtle hints as to what is going on visually, as opposed to verbally...Though there is much to be revealed there too.
I'm honestly 100% blown away right now. No other movie has ever taken such a toll on me before...Every technique Denis Villeneuve used to get the point across in this film just works so well, and has such a strong impact that lingers right at the front of your mind long after you've finished watching.
Overall, this is a must-see I think. An extremely well done film. Will be looking out for more of Denis Villeneuve' work in future that's for sure.
5 / 5.

Although I haven't seen it myself, the same director's previous film, Prisoners, was Stuckmann's favorite film from 2013 (which is probably also worth checking out).

Yojimbo (1961) by Akira Kurosawa
These Samurai films of Kurosawa are really very enjoyable...not so much a thought provoking one like Rashomon or Ikiru but they are sheer entertainments, perfect editing, light, camera and acting...worth it.
7.5/10

The Grapes Of Wrath (Ford) - 9/10
I've seen this many times. I'd give it a 10 if it was more political, and made fun of the red b.s... "Anyone who wants a nickel more is a red."
Fonda's performance is so great. If I owned a school, I would make this film a requirement. Seems like things haven't changed much; you try to improve anything, the word "socialism" is thrown out, usually by those who have no idea what it means, and the fact that most systems is a combination of a public and private sector.
This film reminds me a bit of what's happening now, how so many people lost their homes because of others' greed and illegal actions. This world could use a few more guys like Tom Joad.

Algiers - 3/10 - Charles Boyer is almost the same character in Gaslight with his arrogance... I didn't like one character. I think the film is pretty bad.

Separate Tables (1958)
Good drama about a collection of people who live in a hotel in England, and their interactions. There's romance, snobbery, lechery, etc. Very good acting all around from Burt Lancaster, Deborah Kerr, David Niven, Wendy Hiller, and Rita Hayworth. Niven won Best Actor and Hiller won Best Supporting Actress. Niven was fine but I think Lancaster should have been nominated. He was really great in this.

So you want to see a film many seem to be saying boring/bad, based on a book you stopped reading because it annoyed you so much? Y'see, this is why they keep making crap, people. At least you're not paying to see it... Yet.
