I get that there were some hidden meanings behind things, metaphorical stuff, but I don't know I never really enjoyed this as much as everyone else.

oops forgot Forbidden Planet and Body Snatchers.

Considering NT is full of teenage hypebeasts, I'll beat them to it and say Shawshank Redemption.

I guess NT is full of people who can't read too.....he said pre-1960s.

-A Streetcar named Desire
Psycho
Zapata

In the 85 version, I was like "Can they show  this"  followed by a bad ending

  
Citizen Kane  was great. Way ahead of it's  time

 

[elpablo21]

, The Good son was what made me check out the original
