Help pick the Drama movie we will react to!

Please feel free to suggest other options in the comments for future polls!

*We received a ton suggestions on the last polls, but we are trying to keep the poll sizes more reasonable. We have noted all suggestions for future polls!

NOTE: I have seen American History X, A Beautiful Mind, & Catch Me If You Can, so this will only be Sam's first time watching!

Comments

Stoney Soprano

Catch Me If You Can is such a great movie. The only Leo and Tom Hanks pair up I can think of. So great. Hope it wins.

Paul Cox

Will this be Dog Day's time to shine?? 🤞

Jarrod Hornbeck

Amadeus is one of the greatest films of all-time, with one of the all-time great lead performances. That should win. What do I have to do to get another Thriller poll so they can do ‘Blow Out’??

David Lengyel

If you're going Fincher way, please consider The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Zodiac. Apologies if it was on the channel already. Btw. do you guys have Letterboxd so we can see what have you reacted to so far?

Jason Dolan

I recommend the 3 hour AMADEUS director's cut

EdmanXERO

American History X is one of the most important movies to ever watch. And probably Edward Norton's greatest performance. Unforgettable movie. I hope it wins.

Lana Gorgeous

Dog Day Afternoon, great Al Pacino acting and a true story

Paul Cox

I don't expect Apollo 13 to get through this field, but when you eventually screen it make sure to follow it up with (or maybe even watch first) The Right Stuff. I never realized it was a box office bomb because I grew up in a NASA family and watched it all the time, but I think its reputation has improved considerably since the time of release. It's a proper epic.

Aaron Barlow

A beautiful mind is a great film, it should have more votes

Marcus Cato

Dead Poets Society is a great choice even though it doesn't appear on track to win. And TBR and Sam seem to really like Robin Williams.

Shehab Dawoud

Gone Girl is one of my top 10 favorite films ever, so I'm gonna be really bummed out when it doesn't win. Hope you make an executive decision to watch it one day. I love it when I can get a married couple's reaction to a film like this or Eyes Wide Shut. Gone Girl is more of a psychological thriller/mystery than a drama, though. If it doesn't win, I'm hoping American History X can pull through. A very tough film to sit through, but nevertheless, a film everyone needs to see at some point.

Kurt Yost

Dead Poets' Society is a great Robin Williams films, but don't expect to walk away smiling. A lot of good movies on this list, with Apollo 13 being the one I rewatch most often.

Michael Buhl

The Graduate is usually considered a comedy, although, I could see it being categorized as a drama.

Paul Cox

Another vintage drama/suspense I'd love to see you guys react to is the original CAPE FEAR from 1962. It is truly menacing! Scorsese's remake is fine too (De Niro's "Max Cady" is a beast), but there's something deeply terrifying behind Robert Mitchum's take that you'll never stop thinking about.

ShadowVessel π

Sleepers (1996) is an EPIC drama. Jason Patrick, Brad Pitt, Robert Deniro, Kevin Bacon, Minnie Driver, Dustin Hoffman, and more great actors than I can remember

Domino

Oh, yes! I had been waiting for your next drama poll just to dump all of these beauties that I've made a list of for a while. If I have already suggested any of these before just ignore them. Except the first one because it's a MUST! Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) - Both Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell won the Oscar for this amazing film. It was Frances' second Oscar, her first was for Fargo, which I know you guys loved. 😄 Steel Magnolias (1989) The Road (2009) The Impossible (2012) Trainspotting (1996) Lincoln (2012) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) The Fountain (2006) Requiem For A Dream (2000) Black Swan (2010) Jojo Rabbit (2019)

Paul Cox

If I may, I'd like to thank you for at least including The Color Purple at a time that's not Black History Month. I jump around among quite a few reaction channels, and I can probably count on my fingers the number of films with predominantly Black casts that I've seen reactions to. It's a really egregious blind spot in the reactorsphere and I'd love to see it change, and I'd ESPECIALLY love to see all the Black cinema not be sheepishly crammed in to February each year, and even more than that I'd love to see Black cinema beyond slavery and civil rights tales get watched. There's a whole universe of the Black experience that doesn't pivot on slavery and racist violence.

Long-time Sci-Fi Enthusiast

May I suggest the 1975 Robert Redford film Three Days of the Condor, it is a Thriller/Spy movie. The 1967 Warren Beatty film Bonnie & Clyde it is a Drama/Crime movie. The 1968 Steve McQueen film The Thomas Crown Affair it is a Crime/Thriller movie. They all also star Faye Dunaway.

William 1611

I couldn't choose between "A Time to Kill," "Dog Day Afternoon," and "Apollo 13." All these movies have something to recommend them, but these three are really special. I will suggest (as I think I've done before) two dramas that are excellent character studies: "A Perfect World" (1993), starring Clint Eastwood, Kevin Costner, Laura Dern, and the greatest performance by a child actor I've ever seen. And/or "An Unfinished Life" (2005) equally good, starring Robert Redford, Morgan Freeman, and Jennifer Lopez (!). Do 'em both! You'll love them!

Toc

Great poll, Sam & Dan!

Philip Davetas

So many great choices. But I have to go with CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. Such a great holiday movie for lonely people.

Nismo

Ahh! Too many good choices!

Ken Veader

Amadeus is the most classy movie here by far but Dog Day Afternoon is great. Can't believe Apollo 13 is winning

JDressler

You need to watch them all

Jonathan Patrick

Amazed how low in the ranking The Color Purple is. It's probably the best film on this list (imo).

Jonathan Patrick

Dramas Legends of the Fall (1994) Meet Joe Black (1998) Steel Magnolias (1989) Philadelphia (1993) Tom Hanks The Last Samurai (2004) Mystic River (2003)

Ed R

if Apollo 13 wins and you guys like it, you'll definitely like First Man and All the Right Stuff

John Sutherland

It looks like Apollo 13 is leading the pack, as I guess it probably should. Hard to beat the talent in front of and behind the camera on that one! And a true story about an event in American history that united us, is something we can all use in a very divided time. Speaking of American history, that film, while being VERY different from Apollo 13, and a tough watch, is also a must see. Hands down, Edward Norton's best performance of all time

Mark M

I’d suggest ‘Of Mice and Men’(1992) starring John Malkovich and Gary Sinise, for the next drama poll.

Mr. Writhms

I always thought "American History X" (1998) and "Malcolm X" (1992) should be watched back to back. They are both based on true stories depicting main characters with very similar character arcs that are the flip side of the same coin.

Erwin Quiachon

It's a shame Amadeus is tough on reactions for all of that beautiful music.

Nick Sneddon

good list however Gone Girl the best of the bunch for me

Brandon B.

I know it will probably never win a poll like this, but I really hope you watch Dog Day Afternoon, even on your own time and not for the channel. The story is captivating and Pacino and Cazale give some of the best performances in cinema history. It's such a good film.

bosho11

You should do a new poll with only Amadeus on it. There are some fun movies on this list, but none really compare to it

Paul Cox

Feels great to see Dog Day Afternoon holding its own (as of this comment, it's in third place). It may not win this time, but eventually it'll get a first time watch and I can barely wait.

ron clint

I realize some of the "older" classics struggle because of voter demographics, but i can always hope The Color Purple sneaks in at some point. Good list though!

Darrem

Amadeus gets a reference in Last Action Hero. So your watch order would be a bit off... but it doesn't matter, the movie is so gdamn amazing.

JayWantsACat

Amadeus has been my all time favorite film since I was a kid, so I hope it wins some day.

Glass Hat

Might I suggest " Sunset Boulevard " 1950 Film Noir Classic, with William Holden and Gloria Swanson who btw was a famous Silent movie actress that came out of retirement to do this film.
