The Cook the Thief His Wife & Her Lover (I'm not sure I want to see this movie again) took me weeks to recover

love that one, but mrs. stonestod has expressively forbid its encore presentation in our household the past 20 years....i thought it was a quaint little flick....

I'm intrigued. Perhaps I'll have to Netflix this one myself.

not to spoil the plot - but i guarantee you it's the best movie about a guy getting baked in an oven and served for dinner that you'll ever see

Cindy .........don't watch this one ..........it's too much

Would make a nice double feature with Theatre of Blood, in which a couple of poodles are served instead.

ANYTHING by Fellini of course. Most of Kubrick's too. "Les 400 coups" for showing Paris in the late 50's (sigh).
"Casino" by Scorcese, the last good adult U.S. movie (by adult I mean "dealts with adult subjects" = not the Spielberg crap with kids or Tom Cruise that looks like a video game that seems to invade Hollywood).

Anything by Aki Kaurismaki, another adult filmmaker.

I almost forgot : Laughton's "Night Of The Hunter", a film with kids that's not Spielberg-like.

Thanks Helter, I agree with you. Roeg is really one of the Greatest. Maybe a little bit too "weird" for mass appreciation, like some other greats I've named. But that's exactly what makes them so appealing. They look at the strange side of things. They surprise us. Who wants to be bored with Star Wars Part XYZ anyway...?

A few years back I dated a guy who was really young. He had never seen Stripes and so I had to break up with him.

I've been known to extend this criteria to anyone that asks, "Who's Tito Puente?"
