I have quite a few of them to be sure. I love Akira Kurosawa's "Dreams". The traditional imagery presented in a way that only Kurosawa can do is gorgeous. One of my absolute favourites is "The Company of Wolves". Unfortunately, rather than being acknowledged for its metaphorical imagery that is straight out of Joseph Campbell, the Brothers Grimm and Bruno Bettelheim, it is written off as a cheesy werewolf flick. "La Cité des enfants" ("The City of Lost Children) is breathtaking, Jean-Luc Godard's "Alphaville" is in black and white but the lighting is gorgeous. I do like some American films. I think That Michael Mann's films, "Heat" and "Collateral" are excellent in their genre. I love how Shekhar Kapur made the first "Elizabeth" movie with minimal budget and sets available to him.

I better stop now before the list gets too long! ;)
