Best Movie of All Time: O (closed)

O Brother, Where Art Thou? , One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, and The Omen are three of my favorites of all time.

How is it barely anyone is voting for O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Crazy!

Pappy's Staff:

"The reason he's pullin' our pants down."

"Gonna paddle a little behind."

"Ain't gonna paddle it - gonna kick it, real hard."

"No, I believe he's gonna paddle it."

" I don't believe that's a proper characterization."

"Well, that's how I'd characterize it."

" I believe it's more of a kickin' sitcheyation."

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (so many top flight performances)
Of Mice And Men (Sinise)
On The Waterfront
O Brother Where Art Thou
Ordinary People

FWIW, the same actor played B-Billy Bibbitt in my first choice and Grima Wormtongue in LOTR...blew my fucking mind when I figured that one out. I'd argue that Danny DeVito and Christopher LLoyd both got their starts in Cuckoo's Nest (DeVito is debatable)...Louise Fletcher was completely terrifying in this movie, can you imagine being under her "care"?

"Nurse Ratchett", to this day, is a common noun for a deathly frightening person in a position of care.

I have not seen that movie in years. I need to refresh myself on that one...
