Touch of Evil
Charlton Heston as Ramon? Gotta scratch your head at that, but Orson Welles pulls out one brilliant piece of acting here.

4.
Shane
The best western of all time. Look at those muddy streets, the town that must have been what the real western towns looked like. The villains. The hero. Come back, Shane, come back!

5.
Life is Beautiful
Roberto Benigni created a masterpiece and a miracle: a comedy about the Nazi extermination camps, but a comedy with such grace and beauty that humanity itself is almost redeemed.

7.
City Lights
The very best of Chaplin and that means quite a lot. The scene of the tramp at the end with the girl and the handing over of the flower...the most perfect scene in the movies, rivaled only by some in The Third Man.

Once Upon a Time in the West
Henry Fonda as the perfect villain. Sergio Leone. Charles Bronson. The best of the spaghetti westerns.

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
Great western.

The Third Man
The most perfect gem of a movie. Great acting (Orson Welles, Joseph Cotton), sympathetic heroine (Alida Valli), a plot from a master (Graham Greene), and unbelievable lighting (Robert Krasker). Perfection on film.

Deliverance
Often overlooked, but has masterful acting and even better direction. And it is a thoughtful film with questions about civilization and nature.
