Many threads like this are repeated every so often. You can find one before that one as well.

Such an amazing decade for cinema... Where do I even begin?

In no order what so ever:

Magnolia
Fight Club
American Beauty
The Shawshank Redemption
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Being John Malkovich
Pulp Fiction
American History X
Goodfellas
Dead Man

And there are still tens more than deserve mention... But I shall spare you.


"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."

Tougher than I thought. Best of the decade would have to be either Lost Highway, Fargo, American Beauty or GoodFellas.

American Beauty (1999; Sam Mendes)
Before Sunrise (1995; Richard Linklater)
Fargo (1996; Joel Coen)
GoodFellas (1990; Martin Scorsese)
Idioterne / The Idiots (1998; Lars von Trier)
Lost Highway (1997; David Lynch)
Se7en / Seven (1995; David Fincher)
Trainspotting (1996; Danny Boyle)
Trois coleurs: bleu / Three Colours: Blue / Blue (1993; Krzysztof Kieslowski)
The Truman Show (1998; Peter Weir)
