Hairspray (2007) (2007, PG)
The best movie of 2007 - to date. Joyous, uplifting, great music and performances, a total surprise! Loved it! Saw it a second time opening night and it holds up just as well! The most joyous movie you'll see this year |

Moulin Rouge! (2001, PG-13)
Visually stunning with a fantastic blend of modern music with the story's time period. Features one of the most stunning entrances in film history. |

| 3 |
The Poseidon Adventure (1972, PG)
The king of disaster movies with a cast of characters you actually care about (take that "Poseidon"!). This is the film that inspired me to learn how movies were made and to become a filmmaker myself. |

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975, R)
Endlessly entertaining with a great score and iconic performances. What more can be said of the Queen of Midnight Movies? Must be seen at least once at midnight at the cinema! Check out the UK version on DVD! |

| 5 |
Phantom of the Paradise (1974, PG)
An under-rated DePalma masterpiece featuring a terrific score, and a truly sympathetic character in the "Phantom." This movie has some real heart within its outrageous trappings. |

| 6 |
Brazil (1985, R)
Brilliantly visualized tale as only Terry Gilliam could make. The film is more famous for its behind the scenes drama and butchered theatrical release. Check out the excellent Criterion DVD to see the film as Gilliam intended. |
