Top 125 Favorite Films
Making a favorite movie list is hard. You have to choose the right films, and then you have to narrow it down again. It annoys me, but it is still fun. And besides, many people love to watch other people's favorite movies list. Now, I'm not a big fan with lists. It surves no criticism whatsoever unless you explain it along the way. I'm just doing this for the entertainment of other people. Also, I just want to answer a straight answer when somebody asks me what my favorite films are. Note this, I'm not totally a main stream watcher. I watch art-house and mainstream. I am only 14 years old, which will make this list far more interesting. And I watch R-rated films too. I think it's okay to watch R-rated films at my age if you know that some of the things on the screen is bad and unrealistic. This list will change through the course of time, like every other list. If you have an opinion, in which I would love to know, leave a comment.

- 125 títulos
- DirectorStanley KubrickReparto principalPeter SellersGeorge C. ScottSterling HaydenUn general enajenado provoca un potencial holocausto nuclear que una sala de guerra llena de políticos y generales intenta frenéticamente detener.
- DirectorFederico FelliniReparto principalMarcello MastroianniAnouk AiméeClaudia CardinaleUn director de cine acosado se refugia en sus memorias y fantasías.Fellini taught me a lot about style and beauty for expressionism. 'La Strada' and 'La Dolce Vita', all of them were great films about expressionism. But '8 1/2' was the film that brought expressionism and a story about a troubled artist. And I love films about movies.
- DirectorWoody AllenReparto principalWoody AllenDiane KeatonTony RobertsAlvy Singer, un comediante judío divorciado, reflexiona sobre su relación con su examante Annie Hall, una aspirante a cantante de club nocturno, que terminó abruptamente, al igual que sus anteriores matrimonios.I have never been impressed and amused as I was while watching 'Annie Hall'. It's the funniest and the most intelligent comedy that exists to this day.
- DirectorCharles ChaplinReparto principalCharles ChaplinPaulette GoddardHenry BergmanUna hombre y una joven sin hogar se enfrentan a la vida moderna en las calles de la sociedad industrial.It's a tie with City Lights. I can never choose between the two of them. Let me just say that those two are Chaplin's masterpieces.
- DirectorOrson WellesReparto principalOrson WellesJoseph CottenDorothy ComingoreTras la muerte de un magnate de la industria editorial, los periodistas se apresuran a descubrir el significado de la última palabra que pronunció.Very cliched choice, amazingly great film.
- DirectorBilly WilderReparto principalMarilyn MonroeTony CurtisJack LemmonDos músicos son testigos de un crimen y se dan a la fuga disfrazados de mujeres en una banda femenina, pero las cosas se complican.Delightful, funny, light-hearted and entertaining as hell, this is one of the landmarks of Hollywood entertainment. Oh, and of course, Marylin Monroe looks abolutely gorgeous.
- DirectorJacques TatiReparto principalJacques TatiBarbara DennekRita MaidenMonsieur Hulot deambula por un París un tanto cambiado en compañía de un grupo de turistas estadounidenses. Mientras tanto, un club nocturno/restaurante prepara su inauguración, aunque todavía no está terminado.There's something other-worldly about it. The experience itself was an out of body experience. It's just great.
- DirectorRobert ZemeckisReparto principalTom HanksRobin WrightGary SiniseLas presidencias de Kennedy y Johnson, los acontecimientos de Vietnam, el Watergate y otros eventos históricos se desarrollan a través de la perspectiva de un hombre de Alabama con un coeficiente intelectual de 75.This is my biggest guilty pleasure of all times. Even though it's in the top 50 on IMDB, it is still contrived and overly sentimental. It's just that this was the film that got me into watching movies. So I'll love it to the day I die.
- DirectorAlfred HitchcockReparto principalJames StewartKim NovakBarbara Bel GeddesUn antiguo detective de la policía de San Francisco lucha contra sus demonios personales y se obsesiona con la inquietantemente bella mujer por la que ha sido contratado para seguirle el rastro, que podría estar profundamente perturbada.I can't belive I'm doing this, but having watched 'Notorious' and 'Vertigo' again, I have to say, 'Vertigo' was better. Consider 'Notorious' as a second favorite Hitchcock film. (Number 25 was originally Notorious)
- DirectorMartin ScorseseReparto principalRobert De NiroCathy MoriartyJoe PesciLa vida del boxeador Jake LaMotta, que ve cómo la violencia y el temperamento que lo llevan a lo más alto en el ring, destruyen su vida fuera de él.Scorsese is one of the most american directors. 'Taxi Driver' is another masterpiece. But 'Raging Bull' is the one that really awed me. Most of his films were about gangsters and violence. 'Raging Bull' was his best film about an actual human being.
- DirectorStanley KubrickReparto principalKeir DulleaGary LockwoodWilliam SylvesterTras su descubrimiento en África hace varias generaciones, los misteriosos monolitos conducen a la humanidad a un impresionante viaje a Júpiter, con la ayuda del superordenador HAL 9000.Like I said, I love Kubrick. And if you love Kubirck, you have to love this film.
- DirectorRobert BressonReparto principalAnne WiazemskyWalter GreenFrançois LafargeLa historia de un burro maltratado y la gente de su entorno. Un estudio sobre la santidad y una obra hermana de la película "Mouchette" de Bresson.
- DirectorYasujirô OzuReparto principalChishû RyûChieko HigashiyamaSô YamamuraUn matrimonio de ancianos viaja a Tokio a visitar a sus hijos pero encuentran indiferencia, ingratitud egoísmo y una marcada diferencia cultural. Cuando los impacientes hijos envían a los ancianos de vuelta a casa, entramos en una profunda reflexión acerca de la mortalidad y la familia.Most people know who Akira Kurosawa is. And he is known for his unique use of violence in his films. Yasujiro Ozu on the other hand, is not really that well known in the mainstream as much as Kurosawa, and he is known for his humane message and calm atmosphere. Both are very different directors. But while I say that Kurosawa is better, watching and Ozu film is like going through life. And that's a amazing feeling. Oh, and 'Tokyo Story' is his best film.
- DirectorJean-Luc GodardReparto principalBrigitte BardotJack PalanceMichel PiccoliEl matrimonio del guionista Paul Javal con su esposa Camille se desintegra durante la producción de una película a medida que ella pasa tiempo con el productor.
- DirectoresJames AlgarSamuel ArmstrongFord Beebe Jr.Reparto principalLeopold StokowskiDeems TaylorThe Philadelphia OrchestraColección de interpretaciones animadas de grandes obras de la música clásica occidental, que van desde lo abstracto hasta las representaciones de la mitología y la fantasía, pasando por escenarios prehistóricos, sobrenaturales y sagrados.A Disney film without a plot and only visuals. It is the true example of eye-candy. Its beauty is compelling even to this day.
- DirectorIngmar BergmanReparto principalBibi AnderssonLiv UllmannMargaretha KrookUna enfermera es puesta al cargo de una actriz muda y descubre que sus personalidad parecen convergir en una misma.Bergman is a very hard to understand director. But the ones which were really easy to understand and psychologically thrilling were 'The Seventh Seal', 'Wild Strawberries' and 'Persona'. And 'Persona' is my favorite.
- DirectorTerry GilliamReparto principalJonathan PryceKim GreistRobert De NiroUn burócrata en una sociedad distópica se convierte en enemigo del Estado mientras persigue a la mujer de sus sueños.Right next to Tim Burton, Terry Gilliam is one of the greatest american expressionists. 'Brazil' is the film with the great expressionism of Gilliam and the Orwellian future.
- DirectoresStanley DonenGene KellyReparto principalGene KellyDonald O'ConnorDebbie ReynoldsUna estrella del cine mudo se enamora de una corista justo cuando él y su compañero de pantalla intentan hacer la difícil transición al cine sonoro en el Hollywood de los años 20.The most delightful and greatest musical of all times. It was also my first musical.
- DirectorJonathan DemmeReparto principalJodie FosterAnthony HopkinsScott GlennUna joven cadete del FBI busca la ayuda de un asesino caníbal y manipulador encarcelado con el fin de atrapar a otro asesino en serie, un loco que despelleja a sus víctimas.The greatest thriller of the 90's. It's also one of the greatest films that talked about evil and justice trying to talk to each other. Anthony Hopkins is absolutely great.
- DirectorSofia CoppolaReparto principalBill MurrayScarlett JohanssonGiovanni RibisiUna estrella de cine en decadencia y una joven ignorada forman un vínculo improbable después de cruzar sus caminos en Tokio.We are lonely, we are sad. Sometimes, we just need another person to go through all of it.
- DirectorFrancis Ford CoppolaReparto principalMarlon BrandoAl PacinoJames CaanEl envejecido patriarca de una dinastía del crimen organizado en la ciudad de Nueva York de la posguerra transfiere el control de su imperio clandestino a su reacio hijo menor.The whole trilogy. I love them all, yes, even the third one.
- DirectorAkira KurosawaReparto principalTakashi ShimuraNobuo KanekoShin'ichi HimoriUn burócrata trata de encontrar el significado de la vida tras descubrir que tiene un cáncer terminal.Kurosawa is considered as the father of violence of cinema. But I like his more humane films. 'High and Low' is another great film by Kurosawa. But 'Ikiru' was the one that really left an impression on me. The last scene with the old man on the swings, just emotional.
- DirectorFederico FelliniReparto principalMarcello MastroianniAnita EkbergAnouk AiméeUna serie de historias que siguen una semana en la vida de un periodista sensacionalista que vive en Roma.While '8 1/2' was much more of a psychological analysis, this is the film that showed Fellini had a great taste is style.
- DirectoresVictor FlemingKing VidorReparto principalJudy GarlandFrank MorganRay BolgerLa joven Dorothy y su perro son arrastrados por un tornado desde Kansas a la mágica tierra de Oz, y se embarcan en una búsqueda con tres nuevos amigos para ver al mago, que puede devolverla a su hogar y cumplir los deseos de los demás.
- DirectorSergei EisensteinReparto principalAleksandr AntonovVladimir BarskiyGrigoriy AleksandrovEn plena Revolución rusa de 1905, la tripulación del acorazado Potemkin se amotina contra el régimen brutal y tiránico de los oficiales del buque. La manifestación callejera resultante en Odesa provoca una masacre policial.Considering the films of the 20's, this film is so shocking. And even to this day, it's still shocking. The scene where the baby troll was going down the stairs, it still frightens me. Oh god, the future of society, what the *beep*.
