The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
One of the most underrated films of all time. Good choice. Even Bogey himself said he felt the film was one of his best and he wasn't happy that the film industry [and therefore the critics and movie-goers] gave it the cold shoulder.
Drive with Ryan Gosling is one of my more recent favorite films. No endless nonsensical talking by characters, story is OK but already been done a lot. Dark atmosphere is very well presented on the Bluray. Gosling gives really good performance as tough-quiet stuntman/getaway driver male hero that saves the girl and her doofus boyfriend. Killer soundtrack too.
1984 - the 1984 film version with
Harry Dean Stanton John Hurt is a classic for obvious reasons [moreso every day]. This film should be required viewing for every school kid not interested in the book.
Idiocracy - used to be just a strange comedy film, now more of a documentary, I've always liked whatever Mike Judge comes up with. Including the entire King of The Hill animated series. and Beavis & Butthead of course.
