By Request

My Top Ten Movies of All Time*

1. Zero Effect
2. A Life Less Ordinary
3. Pulp Fiction
4. The Manchurian Candidate (1959)
5. Braveheart
6. In Cold Blood
7. The Salton Sea
8. Brick
9. Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?
10. Into The Wild

*On a side note, I think there is obviously a degree of technicality in the production of a film, and so I would argue that there is actually a difference between my favorite movies and the best movies I've seen. Often the movies listed above were not even the best movie I saw that year, for which I award the Golden Matty O. For example Brick came out in 2005 but the golden Matty O for that year went to Collateral. I don't think I could pick the 10 best movies ever, because, well, there's too many to choose from.
