Love the movies or cinema or films? How about cinematography, production deals, or trailers? This is the headcycle to talk about movies.

"We live in a box of space and time. Movies are windows in its walls. They allow us to enter other minds, not simply in the sense of identifying with the characters, although that is an important part of it, but by seeing the world as another person sees it."
-- Roger Ebert

Interesting collection of films here and so many more could be added, The Graduate and Bull Durham, for instance. Ah, so little time, so many more.

Just off the top of my head without getting all film school geeky, I would add Jaws to the list. It's the classic hero's journey with a 3 act structure and, like Die Hard, every plot device (and character development) from the first act onward propels the story forward to its ultimate end.
