Gangs of New York
Gangs of New York feels like the culmination and combination of the overwhelming majority of Scorsese’s filmography, capturing the filmmaker’s essence, vision, and passions all in a single film that certainly deserves a spot among the Greatest Films of All Time.
Promising Young Woman
Carey Mulligan’s leading performance pairs perfectly with Emerald Fennell’s script and story in Promising Young Woman to give audiences a film that captures the outrage of victims of sexual assault across the world who have been silenced because of the inconveniences of their plights, making this one of the most necessary and greatest films ever made.
True Grit (1969)
Strong performances headlined by John Wayne’s Rooster Cogburn are the hallmark of a western story that is well-crafted and compelling, making True Grit easily one of the best westerns ever made.
Blood Simple
The Coen Brothers’ first outing – Blood Simple – suffers at times from its small budget and limited scope but is bolstered by their familiar style, a proto-No Country story, and a stellar breakout performance by Frances McDormand as their leading lady.
Riders Of Justice
Riders of Justice is a quality action comedy that elevates itself above others in the revenge thriller genre by exploring ideas of grief and causality and masculinity in depth, making it a standout and one of the Greatest Films of All Time.
