Bottle Rocket
Wes Anderson's first film. Co-wrote
by Anderson and Owen Wilson, who stars alongside his brother Luke Wilson,
whom I love. A very funny movie about crime, and how these three
guys are terrible at it. Very funny and just as good as Anderson's
other two films, "Rushmore" and "The Royal Tenenbaums".

Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking
Barrels
Guy Ritchie's first film, also about clumsy
criminals. Hard to understand at times, due to the heavy english
accents, so watch it twice and it is worth it. They style of the
film with the washed out colors and the change of film speeds makes this
movie a delight just to look at.

Pi
Darren Aronofsky's first film. A very
inteligent thriller about a man that is obsessed with math and finding
patterns in the stock market. Great imagiry due the use of black
and white film. "Pi" in a very layered story that requires you watch
more than once, but you will want to anyway after seeing it the first time.

Clerks
Kevin Smith's first film. This ultra-low
budget, black and white film takes you into a day in the life of two conveience
store clerks. Written by Kevin Smith, who I belive is one of todays
best writer/directors. This movie spawns the begining of Jay and
Silent Bob.

Reservoir Dogs
Quentin Tarantino's first film. As
the director, Tarantino plays with storytelling and time in this crime
thriller. Has an all-star cast. Contains a ton of voilence
and swearing, but for this movie I wouldn't want it any other way.
