"Underrated and Overlooked Films" Thu Jan-01-04 08:06 PM by johnbook
Let's get a list going of films that have been underrated and overlooked (new or old, mainstream or obscure/"indie") that you think people should reconsider or just fucking consider.
if you missed these movies you've been missing out
Mine (for right now)
Once Upon A Time in the West-it's on DVD now. it looks beautiful, it's finally widescreen and it's Leone's best film. stop fucking around, seriously
Le Samourai-everyone talks about Bob Le Flambeur. This is Melville's best film. Criterion needs to stop bullshitting and buy the rights and do it properlike
Narc-how little buzz this film got is pitiful. One of the best cop flicks of all time
Station Agent-do what you have to do to see this film. i'm serious. it deserves as much success as Lost in Translation, if not moreso
"Cats are still using the same five curse words. If you take out 'shit,' 'bitch,' 'nigga,' murder,' and 'killa,' (the)mother-fuckin' record would sound like an instrumental!" -MF Doom
"The payoff is much sweeter than the payback" -Dave
