Five Films in Five Words


Here's a new idea I'm toying with.

The Conformist (1970)
Intense.

The Man Who Would Be King (1975)
Audacious.

Days of Being Wild (1990)
Tragic.

Chungking Express (1994)
Lovely.

In the Mood for Love (2000)
Gorgeous.

Like this idea? Let me know in the comments.

  1. LOVE IT! Reminds me of my 'Analyzing directors through pictures' thing. I haven't seen The Conformist yet...I should see it.

  4. Awesome! It's an excellent outlet for these films where you just want to put one word into every sentence.
