Four Favorite Movies (letterboxd style)

1. The Fountain (2006) dir. Darren Aronofsky
2. The Night of the Hunter (1955) dir. Charles Laughton
3. Take Shelter (2011) dir. Jeff Nichols
4. Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) dir. Coen Brothers
I love Night of the Hunter. Mitchum is so badass. I show it every year with my Southern Gothic unit.
 
I always thought Master and Commander was for the memes. Is it legit good? It came out when i was at school, and this kid was obliterated at a football game and kept yelling “Master and Commander…Notre Dame sucks!”
It’s legit good. Holds up too, bc it’s got a ton of practical work.
 
I don’t watch enough movies to be able to do this well, but I like these 4:

The Sting

Little Women (the Winona Ryder, Susan Sarandon version)

The Prestige

No Country for Old men
 
I was honestly not expecting this much love for Forrest Gump. No judgment though.


Also love the inclusion of The Quick and the Dead.
 
Spielberg, Hanks, DiCaprio, Walken, a 95% fresh rating on rotten tomatoes. It’s the kind of movie you can watch over and over again.
I completely forgot Hanks was in that movie. That guy has had quite a career.
