Probably The Social Network by David Fincher, although it was extremely difficult choosing between that, Se7en, Fight Club and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

It's kind of an arbitrary choice for me but yeah, I'd say I like that better, at least this time around (my favorite used to be Prospero's Books). I'd have an even harder time choosing which soundtrack I like better between A Zed & Two Noughts and The Draughtsman's Contract.

I'll have to take a look at it then. I still have A Zed & Two Noughts and Drowning By Numbers on my computer, but due to summertime, I haven't gotten around to them yet.

FWIW I think Greenaway's narrative (post-The Falls) films tend to fall into two categories, based on how many concessions he makes to dramatic tension, plot and characterization. I would group Draughtsman, The Belly of an Architect, and Cook, Thief... in one camp (more characterization) and Zed, Prospero, and maybe Drowning in the other.

I don't know what it is, some animated movie?
The Godfather? Literally also my number one movie based on quality (although my number one to watch is Aliens).
