11. The Prestige(2006)
Interesting. The Illusionist almost made my list. They're both great movies, but I found The Prestige the lesser of the two. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

I haven't watched The General yet, maybe I should work that in this month since it made your top picks... | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

| | Posted: | | | | Battleship Potemkin is a great great film... I started with the "DID" premise... Desert Island Discs... to choose 25 DVDs I would take for an infinite stay on a desert island. And as much as I love movies with deep meanings, I am entertained by lighter fare, and will enjoy watching these flicks more than artistic films.
Yeah, I included three silents, all directed by and starring Keaton. I could watch 25 Keaton films to the exclusion of everything else. His importance as a filmmaker is unquestioned, but to me, his importance as an entertainer is unsurpassed. | | | If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.
