For me, the best movie genre is psychological thriller. It's a genre with a lot of duds to its name, but when they're good, they're fucking amazing.
My favourites are:
Mulholland Dr. (also my #1 movie all-time)
The Silence of the Lambs
Psycho
Zodiac
Gone Girl
Memento
The Shining
Misery

I'll give an honorable mention to old fashioned romantic dramas (since that's a more specific genre) like-
Gone With the Wind
Roman Holiday
Doctor Zhivago
Casablanca
The English Patient
The Heiress
For a more recent example, Brooklyn

(1952) takes the cake in this genre though. I remember I watched that once several years ago, I think when I was home sick from school, but I don't remember much of it. I'll definitely have to come back to it some time. Talking all-time my favorite would be Ikiru. |
