When I own my own revival movie house (hey! I can dream, can’t I?), I will, among other things, show all the following movies, in order, on the same day:
**First Wives Club
Second Hand Lions
The Third Man
The Fourth Protocol
The Fifth Element
Sixth Sense
The Seventh Seal
**
How 'bout you? What kind of clever pairings or groupings of movies would you come up with if you had your own movie theater?
Why not throw in 8 Men Out?
Because I’m doing placements, not numbers. If I were doing numbers I would probably do something like:
Zero Effect
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Two For the Road
Three Godfathers
Four Weddings and a Funeral
Five Corners
Six Degrees of Separation
Se7en
Eight Men Out
All right then, how about:
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension
and
The Ninth Gate
Hey, you stole my list (more or less).
Red Dust
The Blue Dahlia
Purple Rose of Cairo
Gold Diggers of 1933
Black Narcissus
How Green Was My Valley
Yellow Submarine
I’d rather see these:
