Curt:
The first and original The Gods Must Be Crazy movie. Yes, it became a series of films, but the others didn't have quite the same unpretending innocence as the first one (edit: in fact, the series was not even funny but plain silly, compared to the original's humorous wisdom). Wonderful ♥

@Curt - that first GMBC was absolutely brilliant. Superb choice! :Thmbsup:

QUESTION to topic readers:

I was thinking of kicking off a new discussion thread to let people know about unreleased movies that are worth waiting and looking out for. I was thinking of it being more of a heads up to each other about interesting films by indy producers that are either in progress or out on limited distribution as opposed to your usual major studio announcements about "coming attractions." These would be oddball films most people would otherwise miss unless they were regularly trawling the indy film news scene.



Sound good? Anybody interested or want to get involved? Drop me a PM if so. Thx. 8)

My girly friend demands that I add Casablanca, and I agree.

I don't know if this Norwegian one ever crossed the Atlantic, but it surely was a major hit around here:
Pinchcliffe Grand Prix. The movie was made in 3½ years by approx 5-6 people, but became cult and was shown in cinemas (mainly in Norway, Moscow and Tokyo) every day of the week for 28 years (1975-2003)! In 2005 a new, digitally restored DVD was released which featured soundtracks and subtitles in 5 languages including English - read the creator's homepage: http://www.caprino.no/start/en/default.asp. I was, no, I AM a big fan (see >evidence<) of the included Il Tempo Gigante, the fastest and most advanced car ever made (take that, Bugatti!).

Here is a shortened first part, but be warned:
This is from when we took whatever time it took, to tell a story...

Just added to my top list. Less than 10 minutes long and absolutely brilliant. It's called Paperman and it's by... Disney?
