- The Graduate (1967) Mike Nichols’ indelible comedy of alienation is that rare thing, a movie that really does define a generation. That’s because there has never been another movie like it (and no, “Rushmore” doesn’t count).
- 12 Angry Men (1957) How elemental — and riveting — is this: an entire courtroom drama set inside the jury room, where Henry Fonda, as the only member of the jury who suspects that a teenage defendant might not be guilty of murder, questions, cajoles and gradually convinces his fellow jurors to look more closely at the evidence.
- Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown (1988) You never forget your first. That may be how many American art-house habituésthink of Pedro Almodóvar’s riotous comedy.
- Alien (1979) A smothering tentacled thingy attaches itself to an astronaut’s face. Several scenes later, an alien fetus erupts right out of his belly, and the cinema would never be the same.

Likely the funniest—not to mention one of the most influential—of all 21st-century motion pictures, Paul Feig's uproarious, unflinching look at modern-age female friendship launched the film careers of Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarthy into the stratosphere. Audiences flocked to the picture in its initial run, and it only benefits from repeat viewi...
Two of the big screen's all-time brightest stars—Paul Newman and Robert Redford—are immortalized in George Roy Hill's buddy adventure Western about real-life outlaws on the run. A defining work of the era's "New Hollywood," Butch Cassidy succeeds as both experimentation and grand entertainment. There's excitement, million-watt movie-star bravado an...
Alfonso Cuarón's space-set survival disaster drama set a new standard for visual effects—and it showcases career-best work from Sandra Bullock in an intensely physical, layered role. Beneath the technical aspects—which, to be clear are revolutionary (the immersive flick demands to be seen in IMAX 3D), audiences were hooked by the simple, emotion-he...
An account of the rise and fall of mob associate Henry Hill (Ray Liotta) is such a masterpiece that upon its release, Roger Ebert christened it the finest organized crime movie of all time, ahead of even The Godfather. Say no more. A key work of our finest living director, Goodfellas lost the Oscar for Best Picture to Dances With Wolves in an upset...
The Wachowskis‘ stone-cold stunner sci-fi actioner broke all the rules, captured the zeitgeist and snagged four Academy Awards (notably beating Star Wars: The Phantom Menace for Visual Effects, American Beauty for Film Editing). With every trip down the rabbit hole, The Matrix loses none of its allure or heart-pounding excitement.
A restrained, tasteful yet nerve-frying work of art whose impact is hard to overstate. Is this the most ripped-off movie ever? With likable characters, incredible music and other unique artistic flourishes, ingenious use of widescreen space and a lack of cynicism,John Carpenter’s beloved classic about a masked lunatic stalking teen babysitters stil...
Based on Black feminist Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name, The Color Purple brought the career of director Steven Spielberg into a new dimension. Following wildfire effects-heavy genre successes Jaws, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T., this was a grounded, mature Southern drama of cruelty, hope and perseverance....
A virtually perfect drama that's equal parts hilarious, romantic and moving, Good Will Hunting launched the A-list careers of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. The duo’s Oscar-winning screenplay centers on a mathematics genius grappling with mental health issues, a lady love and small-town trappings. Good Will Hunting struck a chord with audiences worldw...
Based on the novella The Body, Rob Reiner‘s touching coming-of-age classic centers on a group of boys in 1950s Oregon who go on a hike to find the body of another young kid. The realistic performances of young River Phoenix and Wil Wheaton are the highlight of the picture.
