poet warrior, who do you think?

I should mention that I found that exercise excruciatingly difficult to accomplish. I had no thoughts on practically the entirety of that list and felt I could give most of those pictures anywhere from "bad" to "very good". Having said this, this is not a response to mocat's inquiry, as I believe michigancat has responded appropriately.

I think Fargo is great. Jerry McGuire is pretty good, too.

1996 was good for me.  I had trouble finding a worthy flick for 2005.  Woof.

At the end of Heat is one of the best shootout scenes in a non-military movie that I have seen.

Someone's favorite movie from 1994 can tell you a lot about them. Shawshank, Forrest Gump and Pulp Fiction were all up for Best Picture.

his transition from dog day/godfather and being all mousey quiet almost, and then most other movies he's been in since that is pretty wild.
