Bridge on the River Kwai and Sunset Boulevard are 2 of my favorite classic movies. I want to eventually build a collection based upon Film Noir movies, which would include Sunset Boulevard and many others. |

I'm thinking that I should have probably chosen Sunset Boulevard instead of Vertigo for my pre-1960 choice. But, they're both such good movies... |

Where is the list of movies that came out during all these years... All I can think of right now is. 2009 - Star Trek and Taking Chance (HBO Movie about a Lieutenant Colonel charged with escorting the body of a fallen soldier in Iraq. First time I came to grips with the emotions I experienced during the way. Cried like a baby, yo) 2008 - The Hurt Locker and Generation Kill (HBO Series about 1st Marine Division in Iraq... such a dope miniseries... must watch) 2007 - Idiocracy 2000 - Gladiator 1999 - The Matrix 1988 - Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure 1982 - TRON |
