LA Confidential
Good Will Hunting
Forrest Gump
Pulp Fiction
The Sixth Sense
English Patient
Toy Story
Princess Mononoke
Four Weddings and a Funeral
Shakespeare in Love
And then the top ten:
10. Braveheart (brought back the epic film, great battle scenes)
9. Silence of the Lambs (very scary, launched a new shift in crime drama where the villain is cool)
8. Life is Beautiful (incredible blend of comedy and tragedy, No Spiders or Visigoths Allowed)
7. Titanic (great love story, great disaster film)
6. Apollo 13 (maybe the top engineer film of all time)
5. Saving Private Ryan (heart wrenching portrayal of D-Day)
4. Unforgiven (relaunched the Western, Eastwood is brilliant)
3. Goodfellas (best mob movie of all time, popularized public swearing)
2. Shawshank Redemption (maybe the best written of the decade, powerful)
1. Schindler's List (just heartbreaking, top director at the top of his game)

This is your list or a list from a source?
That's my own personal list.
Braveheart, or "How To Make The Brits Angry At Mel Gibson". Add The Patriot from 2000 (missed it by a year, darn it!), and it may be the first time an entire nationality isn't speaking to a Hollywood actor.
When my friend Jason learned I have Life Is Beautiful on DVD (wonderful movie, by the way), he demanded we watch it as soon as possible, in lieu of the three other choices being offered up by my friend Aaron...much to Aaron's disgust.
Titanic??? Tell me you're kidding. Have you not seen A Night To Remember? No stupid love story to ruin things...
