For me it would have to be Being There with Peter Sellers as there is something completely truthful about an idiot being taken for a genius. What's yours?

"M" by Fritz Lang. His best work and my absolute favourite.

Probably Das Leben der Anderen (The Lives of Others), 2006. Very poetic film.

I don't have just one, I have many favourites. The Big Lebowski is one of them and so is Being There. Harold and Maude is one as is Brazil, Ju Dou, Three Colours: Red, the Bothersome Man, The Lobster, The Shining, Omen, The Wicker Man, Das Boot, Midnight Express, Stalker....

Just one, I'll go with A Clockwork Orange.

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.  At least that is always the first one that comes to mind.

yes, sometimes we don't think a certain movie may be that good but we can't wait to see it again, so it must be good.

I might also say Kill Bill or Vertigo, or The Man Who Would be King or 2001: A Space Odyssey (sorry, can't help myself). That said, A Clockwork Orange is one that had a big effect on me as a youth when I saw it (maybe not altogether positive, not that I ever got into the old ultraviolence and find violence in it quite sickening). I don't want my own kids to watch it. I love the black comedy aspects of it.

I know what you're saying. It's definitely a movie for adults. Sane adults.

Blade Runner (The Directors Cut)

Obvious choice but it hits all the right notes. Great sequel as well.
