Hmm.. I haven't heard of most of these. But by the titles I'm guessing you like, more serious movies?

A majority of his top twenty-five favorite movies seem to be older films. Because of that, I'm surprised to not see 12 Angry Men on there. :confused:

Not really. Lol. It just seems to fit in with his taste in movies, guessing from that list alone.

I like whatever's good. It just turns out that I've seen more great "serious" movies than other.

Though I do harbor a great love for anything Chaplin, Keaton, or Sturges.

Not really 12 Angry Men is sort of like a filmed play. It's exciting, thrilling, tense, and so on, but it's just not very cinematic. I'd give it a strong 8/10.
