PART 2!
This week, we watch possibly the best ensemble cast ever to be put to film. Drama, suspense, comedy, horror…what can’t you say about a classic like this? We all watched it for the first time, and we couldn’t recommend it enough to war movie fans. Das Boot (1981), directed by Wolfgang Petersen.

We watch the film that took away the Best Picture and Best Director awards at the Golden Globes a few weeks back, and is also the likely Best Picture frontrunner at the Oscars (nominated for best picture and director, among a few others, this morning). This film blends a great performance by Francis McDormand with real nomads living in the desert in vans, and the result is magical. Nomadland (2020), written and directed by Chloe Zhao.
This week, we watch the film that dethroned Citizen Kane as the best movie of all time, according to Sight and Sound. Does it deserve that position, or were the critics correct in their middling reviews upon its first release in the 50’s? Vertigo (1958), directed by Alfred Hitchcock.
This week, we go on another tangent to watch Terry Gilliam’s underrated visual masterpiece. Not since Dr. Strangelove has a comedy been so dark. This movie may be a bit too out there to land a spot on the top 250, but if you’re a fan of bizarre fantasies, it may end up being a personal favorite. Brazil (1985), directed by Terry Gilliam.
This week, we watch twist after twist in Billy Wilder’s classic court room drama. Charles Laughton steals the show as the unhealthy trial lawyer, as he smokes and drinks his way to another win. Witness for the Prosecution (1957), directed by Billy Wilder.
This week, we watch what many consider to be the best Anime of all time. Masterfully animated and ultra-violent, this film remains unmatched in its detail, style and scope. The influence on other animated films as well as live action films of this genre cannot be understated. Akira (1988), directed by Katsuhiro Otomo.
PART 3
This week, we continue doing something we haven’t done before!

This week we are on to Episode 6, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, directed by Richard Marquand and written by George Lucas and Lawrence Kasdan.

This week, we watch one of the oldest movies on the list. This movie stands out from the early ‘talkies’ for its incredible dark subject matter and very naturalistic acting. Peter Lorre does something here that none of us have seen before, and its amazing that he did it nearly 100 years ago. M (1931), directed by Fritz Lang.
This week, we watch a feel good animated movie, because why not? This movie is not on the top 250 (it should be), but we need a break from the string of downer movies on the list, and taking a trip to the world Disney and its animators have created is something everyone should take time and enjoy. Moana (2016), directed by Ron Clements and John Musker.
