Kubrick deserves to be represented and for me it is two films will suffice as once choice for the top ten. First his effort to bring Anthony Burgess to life.
And then the Back satire of the mankind bringing the world to a rather abrupt end:

On the subject of social issues…
A really special John ford flick with wonderful performances by a talented cast.
Steinbeck and O’Neill; two authors whose writings translate well to stage and screen.

A favorite of mine and my wife. A recent return to it and she is currently re-reading the book. A classic to be certain. Picking just one John Ford film is rather difficult.
Kubrick…I have most of his films.
All different, all very good, indeed.
Lolita is the only one of his I do not have in my library.

Is this not a very deep “wabbit hole”?
The sort of topic that has no end.
A film to which George Lucas and Dan D’Agostino owe very, very, much. Credit to William Shakespeare as well.
Five to go.

Not a top ten, but this sums up technology’s impact on society. The Qatsi Triology with a fine Philip Glass soundtrack to boot.

Again, not a top ten. No home should be without it, Gojira or some may regard it as Godzilla. The original of course.

Where would we be without the Saturday Matinee, double feature, and I call the center seats back row!
Elmhurst’s York Theater offered free movie tickets and popcorn to students who served their school, either as patrol boys/girls, student council members, band members or athletes. Very, very cool.
Saturday matinees, the house was filled with students. They actually seated us with ushers that carried small flashlights.
