(I just realized I made a mistake with two #5's, but my back hurts, and it was hard not only limiting my options to 25, and also tough using IMDB scores as a reference, and deviating from it based on how I feel right now)

I'll need to try and watch "Kasper...." - I tried once, and it didn't gain any traction, but I loved the movie I think he made right after, "Stroszek"

Something about Stroszek did not click with me on my recent first viewing so I need to give it another try.

I remember the first time only getting about 10-15 minutes into it before trying something else, but watched it a month later and loved it.
