I am always eager to find an Inspirational Cinematic films that I don't yet know about. I decided to make this thread for people to recommend each other those films you have come across. What are your 5 Cinematic films either recent or old, that general people don't know about? I know those top 5 will change over time, but name your CURRENT 5 films that keep inspiring you as a photographer/cinematographer or your life in general. I start with mine: Blow-Up by Michelangelo Antonioni Pierrot Le Fou by Jean-Luc Godard Cinema Paradiso by Giuseppe Tornatore Ratcacher by Lynne Ramsey BRICK by Rian Johnson

Talk Radio... one of the great (mostly) contained scripts ever, one of the truly magnificent uses of Oliver Stone's ability to build and sustain a neurotic tone without over reaching into conspiracy.

Plays work great in film. Of course I would say that since I just did that myself but I actually saw Begosian do the play first. How about my all time play to film "Glengarry Glen Ross!"

Rick Mowat. Good choice. I have done quite a lot of his plays as well. David Mamet is probably the greatest living Playwright/screenwriter now. Just look at his works like "The Verdict" It takes genius...
