these actually have some truth in them. but it's not on the surface. you have to think to see it. warning: not for average brains.
- 1
1999Andy Wachowski, Larry WachowskiThriller, Science Fiction, Martial arts, Action, Adventure, Action/Adventure, Doomsday film, Existentialism More“ my favorite of all. no critics please, i probably know more about the theories than you do. „ - 2

1998Jeff BlecknerDrama, Psychological thriller, Mystery, Thriller, Television movie, Crime Thriller More“ James Stewart and Grace Kelly. Great movie!! „ - 4
1946Frank CapraDrama, Fantasy, Family“ James Stewart. Alternate timeline. Angel is kooky but who knows? „ - 5
2005Andrew AdamsonFantasy, Family, Adventure, Christian film“ C. S. Lewis - one of the greatest literary minds of all time. separate timelines, myth and fantasy, basic truth. there's more to his symbolism than you think. „ - 6
1997Roberto BenigniDrama, Comedy, Romance Film, War, World cinema“ poignant account of a father who tries to inure his child from the horrors of the Nazi concentration camp they have been sent to. father heroically keeps child from panic (and keeps him alive). „ - 7 1992George MillerDrama“ based on a true story. the actual Lorenzo died recently. acting not the greatest but worth it for the story. „
