  1. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial
    We're told that this new version is tweaked and enhanced, with the E.T. puppet digitally smoothed out, and the guns in the meanies' hands removed (silly, but bravo). [2002 re-release]

  2. Apocalypse Now
    Coppola and Murch have balanced their new edit with grace notes of sweetness, elegance and eroticism, and the payoff is grand, providing both a reprieve from the multiple blitzkriegs and a break in the monotony of the cruise up the Nung.
  3. The Last Waltz
    Scorsese's rockudrama withstands big-screen scrutiny some 24 years after its initial release.
  4. Monty Python and the Holy Grail
    What we have here is an historical document of inestimable value, describing in no uncertain terms the terrible and beautiful times before AIDS.
  5. Funny Girl
    Despite its two-and-a-half hour running time, the movie flies by, so absorbing are its story, songs and stars.
  6. The Producers
    Maniacally funny. It remains neck and neck with "Young Frankenstein" as Brooks' best film.
  7. Band of Outsiders
    The plot may be nothing, but the film is something indeed.
  8. Juliet of the Spirits
    Sometimes the cinema is just heavenly, and this is one of those times.
  9. The Blue Angel
    This film made Dietrich a star, and it's easy to see why: Slightly more voluptuous than in her later films, Dietrich is the embodiment of the pleasures of the flesh.
