I recently became friends with this 56-year-old man and we’re having a movie night tomorrow together. He wants to show me the “trio” of the greatest movies ever made: The Godfather, The Shawshank Redemption & Casablanca. Haven’t seen any of those (probably cause of my age: almost 22). For me the 3 greatest movies ever are Titanic, Lord of the Rings 2003 & Spirited Away. Wondering what those are for you.
Blazing Saddles (1974) The Yakuza (1974) Big Trouble in Little China (1986)
All three movies are exceptional in their own right and all three broke a lot of new ground by blending cultural and genre conventions in new ways.
