Can't be done (one movie, I mean).

Inherit The Wind - Spencer Tracy and Fredric March facing off - it just does not get much better than this. Toss in Gene Kelly acting(!) and it's an absolute winner...

Jaws - Aside from it being a compelling story, Robert Shaw's soliloquy regarding the USS Indianaplois is a keeper. I'll remember Herbie Robinsin for the rest of my life...

The Wild Bunch - What do cowboys/bandits do when they get old?

Fail-Safe - Henry Fonda as the President, Walter Matthau as a not-so-nice political advisor - this film captured the serious fears of those of us that lived through the period...

Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind - I went to see this one, my wife & sirlfriend saw The Goodbye Girl, We met after the movies let out - my wife took one look at me and said, "You'd go, wouldn't you?". I said "Yes" - and slept on the couch for a week.

Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet - The most accessible Hamlet I've ever seen...

Raiders of the Loast Ark - A hero, just when we needed a hero...

The Lord of the Rings trilogy - Epic, what more can I say?


And the list could go on. Do you see a trend here? Bring out the current "stars" and they pale in comparison to the "old-school" actors. What's missing?
