Gamaliel's Principle
Help me with my Movie Bucket List, please.
Ever since I was of a certain age, at which time I knew the difference between mainstream and the path I would be choosing through life, besides unconventional pets...I liked unconventional things. From 17 to 30 (ish), I had a circle of friends with whom to share books and movies that were a certain minimum distance from the mainstream.
This thread will hopefully be like my thread : . . . .'the most beautiful women thread' I hope, in that anyone will come along and make a recommendation to this infinite ongoing must see list.
I'll start with a few I was thinking about today.
...Bram Stoker's The Lair Of The White Worm (1988)
...Crimes of Passion (1984)
...Peter Greenaway's The Cook the Thief His Wife & Her Lover (1989)
...Shakespeare's (via Peter Greenaway) Prospero's Books (1991)
...The Hunger (1983)
...Virginia Woolf's Orlando (1992)
...Boxing Helena (1993)
...Andy Warhol's Frankenstein (1973)
...Andy Warhol's Dracula (1974)
...Metropolis (1927)
...Tennessee Williams's Suddenly Last Summer (1959)
...Williams's The Glass Menagerie (1987)
...Williams's Orpheus Descending (1990)
...The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone (1961)
...Jacob's Ladder (1990)
Anything Peter Greenaway, David Lynch (Blue Velvet, 1986), John Waters, Robert Heinlein, Merchant-Ivory, Fellini, Ingmar Bergman, Tennessee Williams, Faulkner, Steinbeck, Shakespeare (just to give you ideas and prick your memories), or anywhere else, including from among the vast lists of foreign films are welcome.
EDIT : You may, very likely, have a very different theme than mine. Please, please feel free to share. Remember the fun we had posting our pics on the other thread?
