Other Underrated Movies:
The Big Lebowski---pure (overlooked) comedic genius
The River's Edge---disturbing portrait of human ambivalence and alienation and noone can argue the genius of Crispin Glover. 
And speaking of Crisping Glover, add Ruben and Ed to the list. I'm a sucker for buddy/roadtrip movies and especially when they are that quirky.
White Oleander---I really liked that kid in it, I think her name is Allison Loehman? Anyway, I think she and Michelle Pfeiffer stole the show.
American Psycho--- Great piece of social satire that one. And I LOVE Christian Bale with every fiber of my being. Can't wait for the new Batman. |
I love River's Edge and find that movie endlessly fascinating. Those idiots were like my friends and I was horrified to think that anyone could keep such a secret. Crispin Glover was friggin awesome in that film.
Ooh, yes I loved that actress in White Oleander but I really didn't like the film. Not as a whole anyway, I did really love parts of it, however.
Legend with Mia Sara and Tom Cruise. Simplistic in its dealings with good/evil but I thought it was a gorgeous piece.
