Some of my patients used to call me Nurse Ratched!

Yes, he's perfectly cast in this.

How dare they! I hope you administered an immediate cold bed-bath.

Believe me, 'Nurse Ratched' was mild compared to some things they came out with!

It's amazing to see Nicholson in his 70's heyday. Watching The Departed makes you realize that nowadays he's about as menacing as Buddy Hackett.

The movies I've watched most often are rock and roll movies that the whole family loves: A Hard Days Night, The Blues Brothers, The Kids Are Alright, etc.

During my college years, we watched a lot of the dormitory standbys over and over: Blue Velvet and the rest of the David Lynch filmography, plus all things Monty Python.

I went through a period where I watched nothing but the films of American indie director Hal Hartley. He's gone too magic-realist for my liking in recent years, but The Unbelievable Truth, Trust, and Henry Fool are his deadpan, low budget masterworks.

(What a remarkable decade the sixties was, to be bookended by two such brilliant, but utterly different, films!)

Gosh! What a great thread.

Whoever said Tarkovsky... Solaris... What a film! Have you read the book? One of my very favourites.

And the Shawshank Redemption... another great film and a beautiful and interesting score, worth a discussion of its own.

My most watched would have to include...

2001
The Shining
Planet of the Apes (1968)
Harvey
Purple Rain
Delicatessen
Happy Feet
Raising Arizona
Team America - World Police
Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail
Bladerunner
Enter the Dragon
To Kill a Mockingbird
The Silence of the Lambs
Grease
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Le Maitre de Musique

On and on...
