Your 2014 movie recommandations for me.
I cant suggest any films from 2014 to you.. many dont stand out and the ones that do... are not your type of films
I wish Rudderless got more attention in 2014.
It was William H. Macy's debut as a director. Good effort.

Life Itself
But I don't think I can watch Life Itself as I don't want to see Ebert get sick and die, it's just to hard for me to watch that. But I'm sure it's a great film.

Jersey Boys, sounds like my kind of movie. I love period pieces and Clint Eastwood is a great director. I added that one to my watch list. Thanks
...sorry MovieGal, maybe you will have more luck finding a film for me, when I get to watching 2013 movies?

Snowpiercer.
Technically 2013, but released widely only a year later hence many view it as 2014 film. I was skeptical before seeing it but it made a lasting impression on me. The surrealistic environment combined with easy-to-follow-but-clever-enough symbolism really makes you invested. Even though heavy on drama, it never gets corny because of good pacing and well managed intense story-telling. Also, well acted (for the most part). Even funny from time to time, but never to the point where it gets annoying or derives from the story. Just a great flick all around.

Thanks but I had said in my OP I wasn't looking for foreign language films. I have heard of Ida, it sounds interesting and I might watch it someday.

I think you'd like Chef.
I watched a recommendation from Captain Spaulding last night, Chef, I liked it. It was an Indie film, quiet but subtle. Nothing fancy in cinematography, but lots of interesting stuff about cooking and creating meals with a neat father son story line.
Totally cool to see New Orleans again! I instantly recognized buildings in the French Quarter and Cafe Du Monde.
Thanks Captain Spaulding!

I know you have Nashville in your queue. I think I read something that led me to believe you're not the biggest Woody Allen fan, and I don't love most of his movies, but you should really check out "Annie Hall"
Seeing your list, I'd see Taxi Driver, The Godfather II, Ordinary People
Edit: I just noticed the 2014...

Matt I'm still working on Woody Allen's discography, at least some of his more popular films including Annie Hall. One of these days I'll get around to the greats that I haven't seen like: Taxi Driver, The Godfather II, Ordinary People.
Right now I'm working on watching 2014 movies, got one for me?

The only other Woody Allen film I love is Manhattan. The rest are good or not that good, but I haven't seen all of them.
As for 2014, I've seen the ones you have seen, or plan on seeing. "Still Alice" is ok, but I wouldn't waste my time with it, as there's plenty of films throughout the years.
Why the emphasis on 2014?

Why 2014 films? I wanted to see some of the Academy Nominated films and decided I should see the 'best' of 2014 and work my way back. So at some point I'll be watching 2013 films and so on. But I'm still throwing in plenty of older classics too. Right now I'm in a John Hughes phrase.

Without having seen a single one of them, I'd think you might like:
The Lego Movie, Boxtrolls, The Theory Of Everything, The Imitation Game, Selma, Big Eyes, The Fault in Our Stars, Maleficent, Jersey Boys, The Hundred-Foot Journey, The Two Faces of January, Paddington, Cuban Fury, Pride, Mr. Turner.
Not sure when it was released Stateside, but I think you'd like Belle, too.

Honeykid thanks for the movies. I had these on the first page already, The Theory Of Everything, The Imitation Game, Selma, Jersey Boys, Mr. Turner.
I will add to my watch list: Big Eyes, The Hundred-Foot Journey (this sounds good!), The Two Faces of January (a period piece, I like those).
