Sleepers?
Anything you liked that wasn't a huge hit but you really enjoyed? I need to update my Netflix que.
I just watched Shaun of the Dead and found it hillarious :rofl: If you can stand all the gore and blood you should check it out.

Lilith,
If you have not yet seen The Birdcage, and are looking for good acting & dialog, Hackman & Williams are well worth the rental.

"Shaun of the Dead" was brilliant.

I watched both Birdcage and a screen adaption of La Cage... last week even. I agree good stand bys.
Oldfart~ I loved the record albums :p
I think I am the only person that liked the move...Rat Race.
John Lovitz was hilarious in it. Little things happened to him in the movie that led up to a side splitting scene....

Lilith,
You may want to consider classics like 2001: A Space Odyssey & Citizen Kane.

Lilith, I would recomend The Governess.1997 with Minnie Driver. Not really sexual,but in my opinion it is a very erotic movie.I think you would like it.

Your thread caused me to google a true sleeper I stumbled upon a few years ago at a local non-chain store. The Red Tent (http://entertainment.msn.com/movies/movie.aspx?m=89200) is a spaghetti production with Sean Connery that I never heard of before or since. If you’re interested in a movie that every gender and age of the family will find their asses being creased by the edge of their chair, this will do it.;)

I know you may not believe anyone could be interested in these movies, but I'm telling you I was addicted..my ex even destroyed the tapes I watched them so much....hey I was pregnant and on bedrest..what did he expect? lol
The original Highlander movies with Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery :)

I recommend Memento, which is one of my all-time favorite movies, and Secretary, which is also good.

American History X - good good story
To Kill a Mockingbird - Gregory Peck is the man. Also a great book

Mad House...With John Larroquette..One of the funniest movies I ever saw..Best role I think Kirstie Allie(not sure about spelling,i'm a guy),ever played too..They're great in this one..
