Content currently reading by kbuxton read in 2001 by kbuxton B3. Here is the list you requested. The Usual Suspects - because I love a good story with strong character development, both of which this movie has in spades. Also, it has one of the most fascinating, formidable villains in recent memory. The Sixth Sense - because it completely satisfied my sense of form.
Most movies tell a story with no real overall structure.
This one rounded off very nicely, with very few extraneous scenes in the development. Also, M. Night Shyamalan did an excellent job of providing clear clues throughout the movie without really giving away anything. He didn't cheat, which can be very hard in a movie of this sort. I'm looking forward to more of his work. The Shawshank Redemption - because so many intelligent movies with a message are depressing or overly sappy.
