Two Lane Blacktop and the aussie one that I cant remember the name of. Its got the good guys XY phase three that gets written off and the blind guy at the petrol station lends him his blown 57 chev and he races the bad guy who's in some half decent yank tank and beats him (yeah, really) and then the bad guy can't cope and suicides into the concrete barrier after the big, anguished camera to camera scene. Oh damn, what's its name?
Crane - "Running on Empty" sound right to you?
And I might say Steele Magnolias, Fried Green Tomatoes, Beaches, Witches of Eastwick, Sleepless in Seattle, Thelma and Louise..................
But no way would I do that.
All good movies stick to the three basic rules. Nudity, sex scene, and car chases. Get that right and the rest falls into place
Seriously, The Green Mile, and Shawshank Redemption are hard to beat.
