They All Laughed 1981
No one, ever, made movies as pure and earnest and beautiful. Ole Pete strikes again. Who else is capturing the spectrum of the experience like this. So lighthearted, filled with grace, I fell in love like 3 times while watching.

Chinatown 1974
You could bounce a quarter off this thing. Script is perfect. Cinematography is top 3.

So much faith in his camera and in the audience. The reward is a totally engrossing 3 hour epic
