Another masterfully written review, Brods. Must admit I was cringing a bit when you mentioned Forrest Gump as I don't like it and would have been extremely disappointed had it been included. Needless to say that your tasteful nature dominated and you chose what's arguably the best film of that decade. Nice that you gave a shout out to Kieslowski's Three Colours Trilogy. I love those films more and more each year I watch 'em. I see what you mean about Blue, but I do think that in the end is sort of inspiring and optimistic. It's between White and Blue as to which is my favourite. A lot of other MoFo's seem to like Red the most.
Probably leaning more towards the latter right now, I think. I completely forgot about Chungking Express. We had critique it for a module at uni and I remember really really liking it. I must revisit it sometime soon. Maybe pick it up this on fri. Man, loads of films to check out this week. But yeah, I think that would have been a very respectable entry.
Would it be fair to call you a mark for ol' Quentin, Brods? You do seem to like a lot of his films generally. Don't blame you though, Fiction is as brilliantly scripted as you said and I like approach too. I think Fiction may have been the first non linear film I ever saw. At least the first non linear film I remember ever seeing first. I remember thinking how odd and just jarring it was at first, but ultimately loved it for that.
I do hope Reservoir Dogs doesn't make the list. I don't like that film, Brods
