re: What is the "Perfect" film, in your opinion?

Barry Lyndon is really underrated, even by Kubrick fans like me. It is a technical masterpiece and had me completely engulfed in the story when I first saw it

Barry Lyndon is very interesting for me, I think the first half is possibly one if the bets things very put in film, but the sceond half is so damn depressing, it's hard to watch.

It is funny though, super die hard Kubrick fans often cite Barry Lyndon as their favorite of his. It's so technically perfect and beautiful it overwhelms you.

But for their entirety there are very few "perfect" films.

At first thought though, here's my list.

Back to the Future
The Godfather
The French Connection
Heat
The Insider
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Jaws
Rocky
LA Confidential
Casablanca
No Country For Old Men
The Road Warrior
Lost in Translation
The Good the Bad and the Ugly
Once Upon a Time in the West
Ghostbusters
