That was The Rock (yes, the wrestler guy) - I was surprised.

Originally in French, the movie[^] is very, very good. The lead actress looks like my wife :-> The French title is: Le mari de la coiffeuse The English title is: The hairdresser's husband An excellent, excellent film. I also like the Shawshank Redemption

I forgot that one. It is a very good movie indeed. It is about muslim/arabs and sex; a funny mixture when people only think about them as fanatical fundamentalism.

Yeah, but she has an amazing face. I think Love Actually came out before POTC and that's what sold her.

Dumb and dumber LA story The Matrix (part 1 only) Jurassic park (part 1 only) Terminator (all 3 parts) Police Story 2 (Jackie Chan) Antz The fly Tango and Cash Rambo (all parts) Four weddings and a funeral Big daddy Solider (Kurt Russel) Those are a few that quickly came to mind.

It's probably a little late, but add Grosse Point Blank and Better Off Dead to that list

Shallow...so shallow...but :laugh:

Interesting list. Boys Don't Cry really upset me too, as did Soldier's Girl (the story of Calpernia Addams relationship with Barry Winchell, and his subsequent murder by another soldier on his base). Akira is one of my partner Beth's favourites. I imagine she's really like some of the others on your list too. Thanks. :rose:

That's a great movie. You should check out Drunken Master II if you can find it. Legend of Drunken master is an edited version that has been dubbed into English, but it isn't as good as the original.

Cool :) I did post the list on my blog in case you lose track of this. http://smoothjazzy.blogspot.com/2006/12/some-of-my-favorite-films.html I also like the Read or Die series, which was 3 short films and then a TV series in Japan. Cowboy Bebop is another good one, but it's also a TV series so I didn't put it on here. There's two Cowboy Bebop movies, but they are chronologically in the middle of the TV series, so a little weird to watch unless you're familiar with the TV series.

I'll have to have a read. :cool: I did the same, but put it on the About Me[^] page on my site instead. ;) I'll have to get Beth to take a look too - she's far more familiar with some of the genres your films represent than I am.

Great film! I don't know many other people who have seen it though.
