Top5 film I think everyone should see at least once

Like my mind deciding what to have for lunch, Top 5 lists are almost never a static thing.

These are my choices for right …now. Results may vary.

Top 5 Films everyone must see

1. Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) - I just recently got to see this film. I walked out of the theater amazed at just how good it was. I have watched a fare share of silent film, but this stands out alone from the rest I have seen.

2.Seven Samurai (1954) - One of Akira Kurosawa’s masterpieces. Loved it from the first moment I saw it.

3. Dr. Strangelove (1964) - Madness, a very dark comedy, that has one of the finest ending scenes ever made. The choice of music in the final sequence, never fails to give me goosebumps.

4. Rear Window (1954) - Hitchcock’s thriller is so simple yet so compelling. James Stewart is wonderful.

5. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) - In a subject that is not exciting, and in theory should put you to sleep, Jimmy Stewarts proformance during the fillabuster scene is awesome.
