Don't @ me.
Ignoring A Star Is Born, the only one I'd vaguely dispute there would be Sleepy Hollow, but it is repeatedly watchable and I'll give it a pass because young Christina Ricci (when she was chunky) gave me a funny feeling in my tummy (see The Opposite Of Sex).
For me:
Southern Comfort
Tunes Of Glory
Oliver!
Master And Commander
No country for old men.
Dead mans shoes
For my money, it's John Mills' finest hour. Also, the young Susannah York. :love:
Guinness goes miles over the top and his accent doesn't bear close scrutiny, but even that's quite splendid.
Not having seen Southern Comfort seems both a serious oversight on your part and - given its ubiquity on telly in the 80s and 90s - virtually impossible. Top, top work by Powers Boothe.
Sleuth
Not that it isn't rated highly, but it is rarely mentioned when people talk about truly great movies and I really fail to see it in any other light.
Olivier at his best.
