It's a long weekend in the U.S. Why not skip the icky, sticky, sweaty outdoors and stay in watching movies instead?
Here's a start:
1. Brick (Rec. #62): High school noir at its high school noir-iest.
2. Charade (Rec. #97): Audrey Hepburn runs around Paris with Cary Grant, chased by baddies.
3. Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog (Rec. #90): Not technically a movie, but it'll do.
4. Family Plot (Rec. #120): Alfred Hitchcock's final film.
5. Happy Accidents (Rec. #59): Marisa Tomei wonders whether Vincent D'Onofrio is crazy.
6. Harold and Maude (Rec. #45): Maybe one of the best love stories ever, with a quirky, happy/morbid vibe and some great suicide gags.
7. The Hudsucker Proxy (Rec. #106): The Coen brothers do Frank Capra/Billy Wilder.
8. The Lady Eve (Rec. #129): Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda in a Preston Sturges farce.
9. The Palm Beach Story (Rec. #17): Screwball comedy with Claudette Colbert, Joel McCrea, Mary Astor, and the Wienie King.
10. Party Girl (Rec. #141): Parker Posey as a club kid/library clerk.
