Yikes!!!  That's a must see!

Seconds is one of those quietly chilling movies (like Videodrome) that doesn't hit you right away. It's only after a day or two when you find yourself still thinking about it that the creepiness of the story becomes fully manifest.

Added to my list. Thanks!  :)

@App - Wow! That looks very cool. Can't believe I missed that when it came around. :)

And that's why we have threads like this.  ;)

That's one of those movies that I just assume that people in technical fields have seen, along with Sneakers and Office Space.

EDIT: No, it's not what I thought it was... I'm going to have to take a look at that one!

Danes, Norwegians and certain Eastern Europeans will know what this 12½ minutes music video is about. To the rest of you I must tell, it is not "a music video", but a clip from the last part of the most watched Danish movie ever. Denmark has only about 6 million people, but this film has been watched more than 1.2 million times in the movie theaters just in Denmark, plus the many times in the other countries. To my knowledge it has never been translated into or sub-titled in English, because it is a comedy of a certain "Scandinavian sense of humor" kind; 1976 Denmark. But speaking of language, you don't need to understand the few words that were spoken during the music in this clip.

The plot is to break trough several walls and into the last room under the Royal Theater's stage, in order to get to the lift/elevator => up to a loge/lounge => to steel the suitcase,  while the tired orchestra is playing the overture to Kuhlau's Elverhøj, and while the crowd (and the guards!) during the end of the overture has to rise and salute the king (the guards used to be sitting on the two suitcases in mention).

a recent rerun made me remember yet another favourite of mine:
Robert Altman's Gosford Park ♥ In my mind it is within Top 50.

You may need to love the classic British understatement culture, to fully appreciate this genre. Some people have said the film isn't funny. However, when I re-saw it last week I was literally ROTFL, when the policeman (played by Stephen Fry) again and again tried to introduce himself; it was just so hilarious! I am big fan of British humour on film and tv, and Gosford Park is not at all boring - even though Robert Altman is an American....
