Hollywood.... The dream place of every wanna be actor.
Or should I say .. wanna be Superstar . They have
produced quite a number of awful movies.. but..
but they have produced some simply superb movies as well.
I am not all that a great movie geek. But I have my
personal share of favorite movies.
Pulp Fiction : I watched this movie, and after the first
watch.. myself and my roommate were both awed. We were
not sure about what this is all about ? So what we did...
rewind the tape.. and start it again. I wonder if any
movie had did such a thing to movie. I had to rewind and
watch this movie again and again. Its simply fantastic.
If you have that weird kind of likings for movies you
definitely gonna love this one !
Forrest Gump : Tom Hanks cool performance. And the movie
traverses through the american history in time. Its wonderfully
stupid... very imaginitive. At times its funny, and at times
it is sad. A must watch.
Schilnders list : Can take tears out of your eyes. Liam Neesson
and Ralph Fiennes duet. Its a brilliantly told story about the
an industrialists undercover struggle/movement to help the
jews. In the end.... Oscar Schindler cries.. and he says :
I could have save some more (jew people)...
Contact : My personal favorite. Sci Fi of a contact with
the aliens. Inspired by the project S.E.T.I.

Matrix : The age old philosophy (Zen, Hindu, Buddhist) told
in a strikingly ultra modern way. This movie is not at all
about the cool stunts that Neo (Keanu Reeves) plays with
the agent. But its about the philosophy of life.
Godfather : The epic saga. Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro,
Al Pacino... at their best. What more do you want? The
Maphia story of the early nineties in the USA. Mario Puzos
book is amazing and so is the movie.
Scent of a Woman : Al Pacino as a blind Retired general.
A magnificient performance by a genius.
The English Patient : My personal Favorite. I insist
everyone should watch this movie. Its a poem. It flows like
a soothing wind. Its pure art. Ralph Fiennes , Kristin Scott,
Willem Dafoe and the beautiful Juliette binoche.
A beautiful story. Its not a movie..its a story.
One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest : Jack Nicholsons mad
performance.
Dangerous Liasons : John Malkovich , Glenn Close at some
wicked game. A nice watch.
