There Will Be Blood
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
The Shawshank Redemption
Psycho (Hitchcock's version)
Lawrence of Arabia
Let The Right One In
Pan’s Labyrinth
Silence of the Lambs
The Revenant

Glory
Alien
12 Angry Men
Some Like It Hot
All Quiet On the Western Front
The Invisible Man
The Innocents
Night of the Living Dead
M
The Haunting (the 1963 version)
Can I start by saying this was not as fun as I thought it would be. So painful to leave out so many from my favourites for my list.
1. Se7en
2. City of God
3. Silence of the lambs
4. Memento
5. LA Confidential
6. Goodfella’s
7. Requiem for a dream
8. American Psycho
9. Black Swan
10. Eyes Wide Shut
11. Team America: World Police
12. The talented Mr Ripley
13. Boogie Nights
14. Girl with the dragon tattoo
15. Basketball diaries
16. Perks of being a wallflower
17. No country for old men
18. Oldboy
19. Full metal jacket
20. Pulp fiction
I agree, limiting it to 20 was painful. I like a lot on your list. Se7en, Memento, The Talented Mr. Ripley, and No Country for Old Men are all great films!
1. La Haine
2. Taxi Driver
3. There Will Be Blood
4. Drive
5. Dead Man Shoes
6. Fight Club
7. Apocalypse Now
8. Pulp Fiction
9. Raiders of The Lost Ark
10. Blade Runner
11. The Dark Knight
12. A Clockwork Orange
13. Once Upon A time In America
14. The French Connection
15. Fucking Amal
16. A Room For Romeo Brass
17. Paris Texas
18. Mishima: Life In Four Chapters
19. A History of Violence
20. The Wild Bunch
There Will Be Blood is just a sheer masterpiece, greatest American film of the last 30 years imo. Blade Runner is fantastic, Ridley Scott's best film, I also loved Blade Runner 2049 that be in my top 50. Dark Knight is a given, still the best comic book film ever made.
Thanks, tough to leave out so many other films. Those top list especially cut down to 10 or 20 sucks cause you leave off so many other great films that deserve a place.

the story is very touching and i can definitely relate to it, i couldn't get this movie out of my head for a few days, thinking about how life and it's circumstances can absorb us to the point that we feel unsafe to make a change in our lives and we just decide to leave our dreams behind in order to face reality, its one the best thought-provoking movies i have seen and the performances by leo and kate were just amazing
Me and my wife both related to parts of it too, it's well acted and all but to make a top 20 list? Idk...
I think the movie lacked warmth and family moments. (we barely see their children)
