My Architect....

My Architect....

My......

already four or five documentaries about architects have come out since then... but My Architect....has the most compelling touching back story of all of them.

Interesting list, a couple.. whaaaaat but most solid flicks.

I enjoyed City of God recently, love Chicago and a few others. Didn't care for Gangs of New York. You really have eclectic taste.

I stumbled on "The Quiet American" on a flight to Asia and enjoyed it a lot.

Your paragraph ends "See review by " with no reviewer listed.

There are good things and bad things about the also-rans. I haven't seen the original "La femme infidele," but enjoy looking at Olivier Martinez. I also thought Richard Gere was very good in his role.

If you have to go down to #33 on the list to quibble, my list must be pretty non-idiosyncratic. I liked how it looked.

Wait a sec... I just noticed "Unfaithful" on there, a few spots before #33... That was a heinous movie, certainly one I'd never expect to wind up near a Top Anything (positive) on your page. I think you threw that in there to see if people were paying close attention!

Fog of War is well worth seeing, along with My Architect (from your short list of films not yet seen). From the contenders, I part ways with you on Girl w/ a Pearl Earring, which I recall was a rather painful sit in the theater.

Either you time-traveled, or you have a typo near the end, what with films of 20,001!
