It was a gritty crime film combining slices of several stories. "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," 1977, an intelligent sci-fi film in which the climactic scene is set at Devil's Tower National Monument in Wyoming. "In a Lonely Place," 1950, a scathing Hollywood satire with Humphrey Bogart playing a screenwriter, brilliant at his craft yet prone to living with his fists. "Oklahoma!" 1955, brought the fun and famous musical to the screen. "Back to the Future," 1985, explored the possibilities of special effects when a man stranded in 1955 by a time machine must not only find a way home, but also teach his father how to become a man, repair the space/time continuum and save his family from being erased from existence. All while fighting off the advances of his then-teenage mother. "12 Angry Men," 1957, a classic filmed in a spare, claustrophobic style - largely set in one jury room - relating a single juror's refusal to conform to peer pressure in a murder trial. "The Strong Man," 1926, features Harry Langdon, widely considered one of the great silent comedians, as a meek man in love with a blind woman. "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance," 1962, director John Ford 's last great Western. The film shows that the conquest of the West meant the triumph of civilization, embodied in Jimmy Stewart, over wild innocence - John Wayne - and evil - Lee Marvin . Also being added to the registry: "Bullitt" (1968) "Dance, Girl, Dance" (1940) "Dances With Wolves" (1990) "Days of Heaven" (1978) "Glimpse of the Garden" (1957) "Grand Hotel" (1932) "The House I Live In" (1945) "Mighty Like a Moose" (1926) "Now, Voyager" (1942) "Our Day" (1938) "Peege" (1972) "The Sex Life of the Polyp" (1928) "Three Little Pigs" (1933) "Tol'able David" (1921) "Tom, Tom the Piper's Son" (1969-71) "The Women" (1939) "Wuthering Heights" (1939) freeman fisher 8601 west knoll dr. #7 west hollywood, ca 90069 310-6579426 See AOL's top rated recipes and easy ways to stay in shape for winter.
