The Great Movies Continued

di mattfloyd-41009 • Creato 7 anni fa • Modificato 1 settimana fa
When I was 13, I broke my elbow by falling over a baby gate. The point that my elbow fractured was a crucial spot where it had its mobility; 3 surgeries and months upon months of physical therapy subsequently followed. For my emotional therapy, Roger Ebert practically rescued me from killing myself during those dark times thanks to his immense sense of humanity whilst reviewing films. Things were further brightened when I discovered his personal canon, known as The Great Movies, where he listed some of his favorite movies in the hope that they'll receive a following. To thank the great man for bringing me hope in a time of great distress, I'll give out some suggestions for inclusion, just in case beloved Chaz ever decides to revive The Great Movies series with a spinoff to separate it from Roger Ebert's own accomplishment. The spinoff could have multiple critics pick their own favorites to enshrine; that way, Roger's vision for pointing the way towards great classics will never die with him at all, but will be given new meaning and new life instead!

  • Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in Joe contro il vulcano (1990)

    1. Joe contro il vulcano

    19901h 42mPG45Metascore
    5,9 (41.006)
    Quando un ipocondriaco scopre che sta morendo, accetta l'offerta di gettarsi in un vulcano su un'isola tropicale e, lungo la strada, impara a vivere veramente.
    RegistaJohn Patrick ShanleyStelleTom HanksMeg RyanLloyd Bridges
    Roger Ebert loved this movie so much that he reportedly would have retrospectively rated it four golden stars.
  • Sidewalk Stories (1989)

    2. Sidewalk Stories

    19891h 37mR66Metascore
    7,2 (654)
    Nearly silent comedy filmed in black and white follows a street artist (Charles Lane), who rescues a baby after her father was murdered. The artist then sets off to find the mother, but has to first learn how to care for the child. Ultimately he ends up in a horse drawn chase of the murderers.
    RegistaCharles LaneStelleCharles LaneNicole AlysiaTom Alpern
    Despite Ebert's 3-and-a-half star review of it way back in 1989, he must have reassessed its values as the film had the special honor of being revived at his film festival back in 2000.
  • Malcolm McDowell in Arancia meccanica (1971)

    3. Arancia meccanica

    19712h 16mVM1877Metascore
    8,2 (912.267)
    In futuro, un capobanda sadico viene imprigionato e si offre volontario per un esperimento, ma non va come previsto.
    RegistaStanley KubrickStelleMalcolm McDowellPatrick MageeMichael Bates
    This is Chaz Ebert's favorite movie of all time, according to her introduction to Great Movies IV. Roger never got why the film maintains its classic status as he found it amoral all these years later; to each their own, I guess.
  • Joan Fontaine and Orson Welles in La porta proibita (1943)

    4. La porta proibita

    19431h 37mApproved
    7,5 (9941)
    After a harsh childhood, orphan Jane Eyre is hired by Edward Rochester, the brooding lord of a mysterious manor house, to care for his young daughter.
    RegistaRobert StevensonStelleOrson WellesJoan FontaineMargaret O'Brien
    Roger actually did do a "Great Movies" review of it for his sadly short-lived TV revival, Ebert Presents At The Movies. It's truly a shame that he never got around to publishing the transcript as an official reminiscence.
  • Say Amen, Somebody (1982)

    5. Say Amen, Somebody

    19821h 40mG
    7,6 (472)
    Documentary about the American gospel music scene, focusing on two of the movement's pioneering forces, Thomas A. Dorsey and Willie May Ford Smith.
    RegistaGeorge T. NierenbergStelleWillie Mae Ford SmithThomas A. DorseySallie Martin
    Again, this is another one that Roger actually did revisit for his wonderful show, Ebert Presents At The Movies. (Why in God's name did that lovely show only last one season whilst mind-numbing abominations like TMZ still prosper to this very day!?!?) Anyways, it's a tragedy that the transcript has never been published as an official "Great Movies" review.
  • Edy Williams, Phyllis Davis, Veronica Ericson, Erica Gavin, Haji, Marcia McBroom, Cynthia Myers, Angel Ray, Dolly Read, and Lavelle Roby in Lungo la valle delle bambole (1970)

    6. Lungo la valle delle bambole

    19701h 49mNC-1760Metascore
    6,1 (12.559)
    Tre ragazze vengono a Hollywood per sfondare, ma trovano solo sesso, droga e slealtà.
    RegistaRuss MeyerStelleDolly ReadCynthia MyersMarcia McBroom
    This should be the inaugural review to kick off The Great Movies' successor as it would help cement Roger's legacy as an amazing writer by memorializing one of his greatest achievements. Plus, it will help the successor become its own little thing, via distancing it far away from tainting its legendary predecessor.
  • Velluto blu (1986)

    7. Velluto blu

    19862hT75Metascore
    7,7 (232.276)
    La scoperta di un orecchio mozzato in un campo conduce un giovane ad investigare sul caso e a finire nel mirino di un gruppo di criminali comandato dallo psicopatico Frank Booth.
    RegistaDavid LynchStelleIsabella RosselliniKyle MacLachlanDennis Hopper
    Now that we have established Ebert's pedestal as a great critic, let's take it down a few notches by memorializing some of his least favorites as cinematic masterpieces. Hey everybody has to be horrifically wrong at some point in their life- even I'm not perfect as I despise John Ford's The Searchers. (ducks down for cover) Ebert's crime here is hypocrisy- look at Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls again and you'll see Blue Velvet's genesis in the climatic scene where Z-Man brutally terrorizes his party guests. I know that Ebert had a problem with Lynch's accepting tone behind the movie but in reality Lynch was exposing cultural shifts with his tone-shifting masterpiece.
  • Nicole Kidman in Dogville (2003)

    8. Dogville

    20032h 15mVM1461Metascore
    8,0 (164.187)
    Una donna in fuga da criminali viene accettata e nascosta dagli abitanti di una piccola città del Colorado; ma quando qualcuno viene a cercarla, scopre che il loro aiuto ha un prezzo.
    RegistaLars von TrierStelleNicole KidmanPaul BettanyLauren Bacall
    Again, another movie where Ebert got totally wrong on- no, I'm not apologizing for pointing out other's hypocrisies. This time, Ebert was reacting to the movie's fourth-wall iconoclasm, especially to its critiques on American society and thus all of human society. You have to remember that when Dogville first came out, 9/11 was still fresh on everyone's mind and disagreeing with American principles wasn't seen as favorably as it is now in the artistic community- looking at you, Iraq War supporters. I'll chalk up Ebert's depressing comments on how this movie is miserable to watch as a gut reaction to Von Trier's unapologetic misanthropy being thrown on the screen with such stylish yet righteous panache that the movie can be uncomfortable to watch yet still has the power to fully envelop the audience members within the story's universe. That's an accomplishment that no other movie has ever come close to succeeding.
  • Ishirô Honda and Takashi Shimura in Godzilla (1954)

    9. Godzilla

    19541h 36mT79Metascore
    7,6 (43.156)
    Un gigantesco mostro rettile, un esemplare di una vecchia specie di dinosauri sopravvissuto all'estinzione e che vive negli abissi, viene risvegliato da alcuni test nucleari e assorbe delle radiazioni che lo rendono forte e invincibile.
    RegistaIshirô HondaStelleTakashi ShimuraAkihiko HirataAkira Takarada
    The Godzilla community pounced on Ebert's review for its factual inaccuracies, but I'll pounce on Ebert's review for its emotional inaccuracies. Again, this film was a way for Japanese audiences to fully cope with the horrific nuclear atrocities that happened at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the monster symbolized nature's wrath in response to humanity's disregard towards the environment with all their nuclear weapons. One can sense a political corrective agenda whilst reading Ebert's review as the man was clearly thinking back to 9/11's trauma whilst Godzilla pranced around Tokyo, thus making him greatly uncomfortable. What Ebert forgot was that Godzilla was meant to help the audience members realize that all atrocities need to be stopped before it's too late.
  • Elliott Spiers in La casa ai confini della realtà (1988)

    10. La casa ai confini della realtà

    19881h 32mPG-13
    6,6 (6522)
    A young girl lost in the loneliness and boredom of reality finds solace in an ill boy, whom she can visit in a surreal dream world that she drew in her school composition book.
    RegistaBernard RoseStelleCharlotte BurkeJane BertishSamantha Cahill
    Now that I've done criticizing Ebert for relying upon personal hypocrisy, let's return to honoring the great man instead of further spitting on his grave. (No, I Spit On Your Grave thankfully isn't gonna be on this list despite its improved reputation amongst feminists and exploitation lovers. If Ebert still hates a movie due to its dodgy morals, that movie will be banned from ever making the list.) Anyways, Paperhouse was honored by Ebert as it was revived at his 2002 Ebertfest. Putting it on the canon will help improve its reputation immensely as it still is sadly overlooked to this very day.
  • Christine Lahti in Una donna tutta particolare (1987)

    11. Una donna tutta particolare

    19871h 56mPG
    7,1 (3102)
    After their mother commits suicide, two sisters end up living with their kind but peculiar aunt in their grandmother's old house in a small 1950s town.
    RegistaBill ForsythStelleChristine LahtiSara WalkerAndrea Burchill
    Another overlooked gem that needs to be remembered as an emotional masterpiece- it also doesn't hurt that Ebert revived the film at his 2008 film festival.
  • Samuel L. Jackson, Debbi Morgan, and Lynn Whitfield in La baia di Eva (1997)

    12. La baia di Eva

    19971h 48mR78Metascore
    7,2 (12.242)
    Cosa ha visto la piccola Eva e in che modo la perseguiterà? Marito, padre e donnaiolo Louis Batiste è il capo di una famiglia benestante, ma sono le donne a governare questo mondo gotico di segreti, bugie e forze mistiche.
    RegistaKasi LemmonsStelleSamuel L. JacksonJurnee SmollettMeagan Good
    Ebert loved this movie so much that he named it the best movie of 1997 and it received a special posthumous revival screening at his film festival in 2016.
  • Brad Pitt in The Tree of Life (2011)

    13. The Tree of Life

    20112h 19mT85Metascore
    6,8 (188.327)
    La storia di una famiglia a Waco, in Texas, nel 1956. Il figlio maggiore vive la perdita dell'innocenza e lotta contro i conflittuali insegnamenti dei propri genitori.
    RegistaTerrence MalickStelleBrad PittSean PennJessica Chastain
    For his 2012 Sight & Sound ballot, Ebert named this beautiful film as one of the ten greatest films of all time. Quite an accomplishment considering that Roger rightfully despised lists and whenever you got a list from him, you know that you had to pay special attention to it.
  • Charles Chaplin and Paulette Goddard in Tempi moderni (1936)

    14. Tempi moderni

    19361h 27mT96Metascore
    8,5 (273.276)

  • Fantasia (1940)

    15. Fantasia

    Musica da vedere con immagini da ascoltare, nel capolavoro di Walt Disney più famoso: Fantasia! La forza della musica è tradotta in animazioni ora delicate, ora potenti, ora comiche, come nell'indimenticabile di Topolino Apprendista Stregone..
