It's astonishing how tastes don't coincide. You have several of my very favourite movies (Breaking the Waves, Lost in Translation, Downfall, Brief Encounter) alongside several of my most hated movies (Match Point, The Exorcist, Close Encounters, Mad Max).
I like that you picked Ninotchka, I liked that film a lot and you don't often see it getting a lot of love.
I'm intrigued, now, by some of the ones I haven't seen. Especially The King and the Mockingbird. I've moved Ikiru and The Wrestler up my to-see list, too

Thanks Thursday
Definitely put Ikiru on top of your "to-see" list...It's a must. and The Wrestler is a must see as well. Although i know a lot of people who didn't like it on the first viewing.
So yet someone else who doesn't like Match Point? but whyyyyy ? lol
oh well...
as for Ninotchka , yes, i have always loved that movie.I also understand why a lot of people wouldn't love that movie. Nevertheless (like i also mentined) it's incredible how after all these years most of the things it satirizes still ring true about people living in that side of the world.
