There is a film called Windstruck with the same female lead, it also very good. S Korean movies and tv shows often have some really excellent music.

It's really hard to decide but so far I have a top 7.

For A Few Dollars More
The Skin I Live In
The Truman Show
12 Angry Men
Sicko
The Battle of Algiers
Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Slumdog Millionaire, Planet of the Apes, Titanic, Schindler's List, Malcolm X, and Singin' in the Rain, are also contenders.

In Ben Hur (...Judah ben Hur,.... let me die.) we get one of our greatest depictions of the Nazarene. And we as the audience never see His face. That is reflected in the characters who face Him.

Rounders - best movie about gambling I have seen
Memento
Fargo
The Cable Guy
Hoop Dreams - great movie on its own, but helps if youre a big basketball fan
Total Recall - There could be a number of sci-fi movies in this spot, including Edge of Tmrw, Looper, Matrix. It's the premise that is enjoyable, not as fun when you rewatch, but still good.
Annie Hall - I'll admit its aged, and NYC longer resembles Alvy Singer's NYC, but my favorite movie for some time, so needs to be on the list
Eddie and the Cruisers 2 - The movie itself is not great, but has a great soundtrack by a great band and its about music and me and my buddy have watched in many times
Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
Sideways

I would say Sideways is my favorite. I still watch it, know every scene by heart, and went to go visit Buelton last time I was in California.

I actually never realized it, but my list is really heavy on 90s. Even though its probably the era where I saw the least movies ... at least in the theaters. It's also my generation though.
