This is a conspiracy, that's what this is.

I don't think I've had a string of five movies I enjoyed all the way through. There's always one.

75. In the Heat of the Night (1967) - Now THIS is how you make cop drama. Sidney Poitier is awesome & Rod Steiger is even better. Hell, it's even a tad "whodunit", if only because Steiger keeps deciding the last person he saw did it based on nada. Five Stars easy. However, I watched the trailer on the disc? Gives away the whole movie in order. Who's bright idea was that?

74. The Silence of the Lambs (1991) - Another flick I've loved for as long as I can remember. In fact, I used to argue that Hannibal Lecter was, in fact, not a villain but a really flawed anti-hero. Really flawed. I have to sentimentally give this Five Stars.

73. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) - Perhaps it's simply my aversion to the western genre popping up again, but this movie bored me to no end. A star. That's it.

72. The Shawshank Redemption (1994) - Yet another movie you either love or are a moron for not loving. It's brilliant. Which is something considering it sprang from the mind of Stephen King. Five Stars before I even put the disc in.

71. Saving Private Ryan (1998) - Best war movie ever? Maybe after Full Metal Jacket. When it was new I only watched the opening battle scene and was convinced the movie had peaked in it's opening. Turns out, it gets better. Five Stars.
