    I have a few english movies and not being an english movie fan has left me confused. This is what I have:

    I Want Candy
    citizen kane
    Diary Of The Dead
    Death At A Funeral
    Cloverfield
    Cleaner
    Charlie Wilson's War
    A Requeim for a Dream
    Chaos

    Which one should I watch?

    Not Cloverfield. It's rubbish. Citizen Kane, A Requiem for a Dream and Charlie Wilson's War - all excellent choices.

        Thanks for info. Its time for tea, then a stroll in nearby market, dinner and then Citizen Kane.

          You could say "English-language movies" to be precise. :)

              Something from England is ENGLISH! England's is that which Belongs to England. As in He is an English Man and England's Green and Pleasant Land. To state they are English Films is incorrect, they may be described as English-Language Films, or American Films, predominately abused by the constant bastardization that the Hollywood Producers do to both the Beautiful English Language and our history. (According to Hollywood, Sir Winston Eisenhower parachuted into a German Submarine in 1938 and nicked all the secrets etc blah blah blah... U571, what a piece in inaccurate crap. It was a British victory two years before the film was set, but no, that won't do will it? /rant

                Citizen Kane is the best film there, without question, but the acting style may be difficult for a modern audience. If you like that film then I would suggest 'Casablanca' as a follow up (I know it's not on your list). If you don't watch Casablanca you will certainly regret it, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.

                  I quite liked Cloverfield. But no one else does, strange.

                      Personally I hate shakeycam ... I think it's a gimick and this was a whole film based around that.

                        Americans don't speak English, they speak "American". And no, "American" isn't a language, but an accident :)

                                    EVERY Bollywood story is this... Attractive Girl meets Handsome Boy, Dance/Sing. Girls Father Forbids Girl from Seeing boy, Dance/Sing. Boy does something good in the Father's eyes,(saves his life/business), Dance/Sing. Boy Marries Girl, Big Dance/Sing. Is that right?

                                      I have a few english movies and not being an english movie fan has left me confused. This is what I have:

                                      I Want Candy
                                      citizen kane
                                      Diary Of The Dead
                                      Death At A Funeral
                                      Cloverfield
                                      Cleaner
                                      Charlie Wilson's War
                                      A Requeim for a Dream
                                      Chaos

                                      Which one should I watch?

                                      C isn't that hard: void (*(*f[])())() defines f as an array of unspecified size, of pointers to functions that return pointers to functions that return void "Always program as if the person who will be maintaining your program is a violent psychopath that knows where you live." - Martin Golding

                                      Citizen Kane, Hot Fuzz and A Fish Called Wanda. That should give you a mix. Two of them are British as well. Ellaine :rose:

                                          EVERY Bollywood story is this... Attractive Girl meets Handsome Boy, Dance/Sing. Girls Father Forbids Girl from Seeing boy, Dance/Sing. Boy does something good in the Father's eyes,(saves his life/business), Dance/Sing. Boy Marries Girl, Big Dance/Sing. Is that right?
