Films that capture the spirit and energy of a place and time. Anyone seen the German film "M" with Peter Lorre, came out in 1931/2? The frantic explosive energy in that couldn't be duplicated, at least not in the US imo. Than there is something quirky like Monty Python & the Holy Grail or Gilliam's Brazil. Who's going to finance Brazil, how was it financed then? Maltese Falcon or Key Largo, the Big Sleep, Seven Samurai, Ran, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Bonny & Clyde. Some movies just should never be remade, like Psycho.
