I thought you were thinking about architecture? One of our professors at UNCC once gave us an assigment that included three films relating architecture and film....

Rear Window - Alfred Hitchcock
Wings of Desire - Boring to me, but some great effects and cinematography
Strictly Ballroom - A parody of sorts about the Pan Pacific Grand Prix Finals in Australia, but worth a look. Humorous and intellegent. One of my favorite movies of all time.

Others that some I own and others I like and , but not for the above reasons:

Steel Magnolias
Torch Song Trilogies
Batman - the first one with Michael Keaton
Pacific Heights
Dangerous Liasons
Cookie's Fortune - I have a thing or two for Glenn Close.
War of the Roses
Fatal Attraction
Sunset Boulevard
Mommie Dearest

 

All Woody Allen, with the exception of "It's a Wonderful Life", which we watch every year around New Years. For me, there are few other movies with the same combination of aesthetic sensibility, realistic writing/dialogue, character development, and goofiness as Woody Allens'. In addition to completing my Woody collection, I would like to get Shawshank Redemption and Jacob's Ladder, though, and for action movies, Terminator 1 and 2 and Total Recall. It's hard to take any action movie actor seriously after watching Arnold in his prime.
