[QUOTE="pygmahia5"][QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"]A Clockwork Orange Memento Taxi Driver Those three are at the top of my list. Taxi driver!? ugh, i hated that movie. You can't be serious. I just looked at the films you listed, it seems like you're a Robert De Niro fan..and you didn't like Taxi Driver? It's his best role, by far.

I would suggest you watch it again.. It's Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro's best film, and that's saying something..

Watch it again. It's very good at building up De Niro's character and showing his emotions and feelings towards women and people. Besides, the majestic shots with jazz music playing in the backround make it worthy of anybody's top ten! :x

Here is his filmography. He has made so many memorable movies, and yes he did do Goodfellas and Casino.

Hopefully you'll like it this time.. :x
After Hours and The King of Comedy are some of my favorite films by him, yet I never see them mentioned.

I love them too, but honestly, they just don't compare to Taxi Driver or Goodfellas.
Re-Animator, The Glass Menagerie, On Golden Pond, Matrix, The Evil Dead, The Haunting, Fight Club, American Psycho, Cannibal Holocaust, Army Of Darkness, Halloween, The Sandlot, Kramer Vs. Kramer, A Few Good Men, The Mask, Jumanji, Tommy Boy, Office Space, Dead Alive, Back To The Future (all three)
The Passion of Joan of Arc is incredible, I don't know much about Playtime or Jacque Tati's other films. Whats a good film to introduce me too him?

Playtime is his best film and it is pretty much agreed about by everyone else who has seen his other films -- it is basically his masterpiece. He uses the same type of humor and the same ideas as before in his other films, but he takes them further. It is also the film that screwed him over for life due to the high production cost and failure at the box office. There is pretty much no difference which one you start with because they are all pretty similar, but Playtime is the one to go for.

Will do. I can't remember if my library has it, I know they just got Trafic so I'l check out which ever one they have, or maybe both.
