"Streets of Fire" (1984) - This came out the first year I was stationed in Germany. The night before my first deployment to Graf (Grafenwohr Training Area - and every combat arms guy stationed in Germany between 1945-1990 KNOWS "Graf"), we had a platoon party and watched this movie. FUN and terribly underrated. Regardless of the movie Wilem Defoe is in, he is still the character he plays in this film. NOTE: By its own admission, the movie is "a rock and roll fable", so there will be editing for music if you post it on YT.

I’ll be going throu this list most likely today! Thanks everyone for ur noms. ❤️❤️

Late to the party on this one – been preoccupied working on a comatose truck engine. Anyway, here are my nominations, if it’s not too late. For whatever it’s worth, here are my top eight in each category - I probably am too late, but maybe these could go into the hopper for future consideration: MUM: A mix of genres, eras, and tones #1: Twelve Angry Men (either the 1957 original OR the 1997 remake) – tense jury drama #2: Molly’s Game (2017) – true story of a star athlete turned underground gambling entrepreneur #3: Breach (2007) – another true story, this one about a mole in the FBI #4: The Outpost (2019) – a third true story, set in the Afghanistan war #5: Robin and Marian (1976) – Robin Hood and Maid Marian after he returns from the Crusades #6: Predestination (2014) – a twisty science fiction story about time travel, free will, and consequences of decisions #7: The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) – the stories of three service members after World War II and their readjustment to civilian life #8: Defiance (2008) – a fourth true story, this one of a community of Polish Jews hiding from the Nazis in the forest CC: #1: True Detective, Season One (2014) – you may have seen this, but I had to include it – Southern Gothic detective story with possibly the strongest performances ever given by Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey, and a great turn by Michelle Monaghan. Eight episodes, so not a long one. Couldn’t quit thinking about it for days afterward. #2: Repo Man (1984) – Probably the weirdest thing Harry Dean Stanton ever did, and that’s saying something. #3: To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything – Julie Newmar (1995) – Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, and John Leguizamo as drag queens on a road trip – heartwarming! #4: Warm Bodies (2013) – a love story between a living girl and a zombie boy. #5: Stranger Than Fiction (2006) – what do you do when you realize you are a character in a novel whose author is thinking about killing you off? What would Will Ferrell do? #6: Colossal (2016) – what do you do when you realize your actions control a giant monster rampaging in Seoul? #7: Spectral (2016) – a military ghost story. #8: Sorcerer (1977) – a tense action film in a jungle setting with great action, cast, and story (and a killer soundtrack by Tangerine Dream.)

Thank you for the link - I added them at the bottom of the list. Skimming titles on the way down, I only saw three or four of the sixteen I listed on anyone else's submissions. There were quite a few other duplications between other member's lists, so I went ahead and put all mine on - maybe the number of people who suggest a title is input in decided if you need to choose based on a film's popularity?
