Best Films
The word ‘Entertainment’ is “the action of providing or being provided with amusement or enjoyment”. But cinema does so much more than provide amusement or enjoyment. Good cinema moves, enlightens, and leaves us with a rush of emotions. And then, some movies leave an impact in more ways than one. Here are a few films that will make you realise why adult life is super important.
The Godfather-1976
The Godfather, A.K.A., is one of the best films ever made. The film’s key themes are family, loyalty to the family, and a man’s duty to protect those closest to him.
Taxi Driver-1976
Travis Bickle, a lonely, suffering Vietnam veteran, is one of the film’s most iconic characters. He can’t sleep, so he drives his taxi all day and night, surveying 1970s New York City, praying that “someday a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the streets”.
Raging Bull-1980
The true story of boxer Jake LaMotta is one of self-destruction. His rise and fall are punctured with bouts of violence (in and out of the ring) and intense jealousy, which strain his relationships with his wife and family.
Life Is Beautiful-1997
Emotionally devastating, supremely hopeful, and nothing short of true cinematic beauty, Life is Beautiful is one of the most renowned international films ever and a powerfully humane war comedy.
Fightclub-1999
Fight Club is a film about masculinity. Men who feel like they’re no longer allowed to be men – men who both literally and metaphorically have lost their testicles – regain their masculinity by knocking seven shades out of each other.
12 Years a Slave-2013
Not many films are worthy of being described as ‘important’, but 12 Years an enslaved person is. It’s an exquisite portrayal of man’s inhumanity to man, and everyone needs to see it – without exception.
Boyhood-2014
Shot over 12 years, the film follows the life of Mason Evans from age six to 18. It’s simply about growing up, how your relationships with parents, siblings and friends change over time, and the defining moments that carry you from boy to man.
