    L.A. Confidential
    I'm not a big movie guy anymore, but this was a great year for me, and I may be one of the only people in captivity that has never seen Titanic...I loved Jackie Brown, and LA Confidential is one of, if not my favorite film ever. I read the book, and the movie is true to it...James Ellroy is tits, I highly recommend reading all his stuff (I have), if you have the time to obsess over 600-plus page books filled with darkness, filth, misogyny, violence (sorry, not book club board)...

    I've partied with Minnie Driver at Sundance so my confirmation bias is seeping in. My ex wife wouldn't let me propose a threesome though. Sad.

    You did the right thing by getting rid of that bitch.

    The Fifth Element
    Better year than I’d expected.
    Good Element for rewatchability. Boogie Nights would be my real pick. Good Will/Wag the Dog (underrated)/Brasco

    True. But I wouldn’t have been able to go to Minnie’s private Sundance party were it not for my Daddy Warbucks ex father in law.

    L.A. Confidential
    I will say though I love The Fifth Element. For being a sometimes silly sci-fi movie it has one of the most oddly romantic scenes of any film I’ve seen at the end:
