Different genres and time periods

What are your top ten favorite movies?

Among my all-time favorite movies, there is a diverse selection that spans across different genres and time periods. Luis Buñuel’s ‘Viridiana,’ a Spanish film released in 1961, captivates me with its unique storytelling and thought-provoking themes. ‘Fontana di Trevi,’ an Italian film from 1960 directed by Carlo Campogalliani, takes me to the heart of Rome and captures the beauty of the city. Hal Ashby’s ‘Being There,’ a 1979 American film, stands out for its subtle humor and insightful commentary on society.

Moving to epic spectacles, William Wyler’s ‘Ben-Hur,’ released in 1959, showcases grandeur and captivating storytelling against a backdrop of ancient Rome. Alfonso Cuarón’s ‘Roma,’ a Mexican film from 2018, masterfully weaves a personal narrative within a larger historical context. The emotional journey in ‘Scent of a Woman,’ directed by Martin Brest and released in 1992, resonates deeply.

Bernardo Bertolucci’s ‘Last Tango in Paris,’ a 1972 French-Italian film, challenges conventions and explores complex relationships in a daring way. Steven Spielberg’s ‘Saving Private Ryan,’ a 1998 American film, immerses me in the intensity of World War II through its gripping depiction. ‘Intergalactica’ and ‘Oppenheimer’ are new films that fascinated me particularly the last on which I think it is one of the best movies ever made
