Unmissable films...
Hi all,
My wife and I have just signed up to LoveFilm. I'm just populating my rental list (says I should ideally store 50+ titles in there ) - what films would you class as "unmissable", or what films have you seen that you would highly recommend? Any genre, any age... |

The Princess Bride is a classic, I love it! Personally I think Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch are two unmissable films, but what do I know

Re: Unmissable films...
Mm.. The Silence of the Lambs. Best movie ever. Most of the others I suggest have been listed, with the exception of Reservoir Dogs and a few others I don't remember right now.
