Lost me on #85……”Natural Born Killers”. Juliette Lewis and Woody Harrelson

The Most disgusting movie of all time. THE only movie I ever walked out on in my life. Absolutely pointless.

Back in the 80’s, my brother once told us that his favorite movie was Hollywood Nights. My wife and I watched about fifteen minutes of teenager hijinks and we turned it off. I would rank it up there with Porky’s.

"Last of the Mohicans" was a decent movie that gets elevated on any list like this because it has one of the greatest soundtracks of any movie ever made.

Last of the Mohicans: Promontory

I’m surprised how many of these I’ve never seen or have never even heard of.

The Producer of The Winds Of War/War And Remembrance, demanded that ABC allow him complete freedom and promises not to cut anything.

As a result, it had some of the most gut-wrenching depictions of The Holocaust ever done.

I’ve seen a good chunk of them. I know these things are meant to create lots of arguing and for that purpose this list is as good as any but Variety itself isn’t a good source of movie criticism to begin with. I’d say maybe half one could make an argument for to be on a 100 best list. Another chunk are ok to good movies that just have no business being there and then there are bizarro picks which show this list isn’t serious at all. To use the line from Chinatown....forget it Jake it’s Variety.
