three films to kill half a day of spare time

[Lenny Rider]

Rockenrolla
Layer cake
Goodfellas

 

[Seagull58]

Once Upon a Time in America. At 3 hours and 49 minutes you haven't got time for two more so follow it with The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

A Sergio Leone festival of film in half a day.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Just watch any one Jason Statham film in which he plays the Jason Statham character. Believe me, it'll SEEM like half a day.

I love the most English of English quotes from the Dambusters ... "But there is some evidence to suggest that during the Battle of the Nile he dismissed the French flagship with a yorker."

Alright if we are talking English Films then we have to go this trio from Powell & Pressburger:

A Canterbury Tale

The Life & Death of Colonel Blimp

and finally the incomparable...

A Matter of Life and Death

[Blazing Apostle]

Cloud Atlas

Harold and Maude for a little light comedy
Withnail and I
That French film with the disabled rich man and the black helper.

Harold and Maude - what a classic, and great soundtrack too. When I was a teenager I really wanted that E-Type hearse!

Green mile.

All the best films are about institutions.
