10. Dazed and Confused (1993) Richard Linklater
A coming of age film about teenagers on their last day of school in the 70's. More so than any other film, I think Dazed and Confused captures the pain and humor of growing up.
9. Before Sunrise (1995) Richard Linklater
The story of 2 strangers meeting in a foreign city and quickly falling in love. This is the most romantic movie ever made in my opinion.
8. Boogie Nights (1997) Paul Thomas Anderson
A look into the porn business in the 70's and more so about life in the fast lane.
7. Good Will Hunting (1997) Gus Van Sant
"Some people can never believe in themselves, until someone believes in them."
The story of a troubled genius trying to find his place in the world.
6. Reservoir Dogs (1992) Quentin Tarantino
A heist movie where you dont need to see the heist. The beginning of Tarantino's incredibly unique character driven movies.
5. Goodfellas (1990) Martin Scorcese
Where The Godfather shows you the life of the higher levels in the mob world, Goodfellas gives you a look into the life of of the working class wiseguys. If you had romanticized notions about the mafia, this movie will put an end to that.
4. Fargo (1996) Coen brothers
This is storytelling at its finest. Dark, gritty, and brilliant. One of the most re-watchable movies for me.
3. True Romance (1993) Tony Scott
Quite possibly the most underrated and under-appreciated movie of all time. A wild ride from start to finish. Amazing cast and dialogue.
2. Pulp Fiction (1994) Quentin Tarantino
Groundbreaking monologue, fantastic blend of violence and humor, as well as a stylized vision builds this film to be one of the best ever made.
1. The Big Lebowski (1998) Coen brothers
This film is a cult phenomenon that gets better every time I watch it. Endless amounts of quotable scenes. Nothing I write will do it justice. The Dude abides...
