    Easy Rider: Somewhat dated
    Do the Right Thing: A little over the top.
    On the Waterfront: Classic
    Eyes Wide Shut: Yep. Closed for a reason.
    Hard Day’s Night: A Day in the Life
    Midnight Cowboy: Still wondering how I was able to see this movie as a teenager
    When Harry Met Sally: Best performances of Crystal and Ryan’s careers
    Death Wish: Only Bronson
    Forrest Gump: I liked it.
    Blair Witch Project: The ending got me.

    And the choice is: Easy Rider. Wondering what the next generation thinks of this flick.
