Summertime (1955)
One of the finest love stories I've ever seen.
Ms. Hepburn portrayed the many stages of love so convincingly that it is difficult to remember it's just a movie.
One of the most appealing aspects of this film is that both she and her co-star are in their middle years. Their ability to show the blossom of new love and all the "ubbly, bubbly" feelings/emotions that go along with it are excellent examples of great acting.
These days, Hollywood seems to believe that only teen or pre-teen love stories have any box-office appeal. For the most part, the acting is secondary to the amount of skin they reveal throughout the flick.
If you haven't seen this movie in the past 10 years, it's definitely a film to check-out again.
Network (1976)
This is the most prophetic film I've ever seen!
When I first saw this movie I was 14. Although I liked the film, I enjoyed the line "I'm mad as hell..." more than anything in the film because the story line was so far fetched.
Well, what a difference a generation makes. The story line of the film is now the current state of television. I've never known another film to be so completely prophetic.
If you haven't seen this film in a decade or so, you may want to watch it again.
