Diehl40's top 50

32. Mighty Aphrodite- Woody Allen


I thought this was one of Allen's more creative movies. I especially liked the way he made use of the Greek chorus. To me, this was kind of Oasis in that dark period for Allen when he was struggling.

31. Fargo- Coen Bros.



One of my favorites that I would classify as dark or absurd comedy.

Anybody mentioning Fargo always makes me chuckle a bit...great dark comedy

30. Camille Claudel- Nyutten


Isabella Adjani is always good to look at, but given the opportunity she can really act. I have seen her in "Camille Claudel", Adelle H., Subway, and Noferateu. I have Queen Margot, but have not yet watched it. In Camille Claudel she really impresses. Depardieu also turns in a good performance in this film.

Haven't seen 100 Foot Journey but love Chocolate 2000 by Hallestrom, I recommend it if you haven't seen it already.

It's very good; not my favourite .

It's # 236 on my all time list

I don't think it's on mine but I'm fond of it. Has a great atmosphere – also it's novel to see John Wood not playing a psychopath .

I am realizing that I am doing this backward. It would be better to start with a larger list and refine it until I get a truer idea of what my top 10 should be. closing thread
