Home Fries (1998)
Slightly better than watching moss grow.
I'm usually not such a harsh critic however if it weren't for the fact that my date wanted to see this movie I'd a walked out after the first 15 minutes. The film should've gone through several rewrites because the premise was definitely intriguing and original but the film was just not happening. If you're a Drew Barrymore fan she is the only redeeming part of this film with her charming smile and back-o-the-woods accent.
Nuovo Cinema Paradiso (1988)
A Perfect Movie
As a film student I am often asked "What is your favorite movie?" For the last several years my reply has been, "Cinema Paradiso". It is a wonderful movie that inspires the soul to reflect on our past, our fathers, and the journey we take in life. The movie succeeds on all levels of film-making and it will be tough to replace this one as my number one pick.
