Hearts of the World, 1918
D.W. Griffiths best work. The film was commisioned to induce the United States into WWI. The U.S. entered the war, however, before the film was completed, so he used actual combat footage. Besides...Lillian Gish was just freakin' adorable.

Casablanca, 1942
Need I explain? Arguably Bogart's best work...unless, of course, you're a Philip Marlowe fan.

Toss up between
The Postman, 1997 and The Patriot, 2000
I'm not a big fan of either Kevin Costner or, Mel Gibson, but both gave excellent performaces in their respective roles.

For Sheer fun;
Cutthroat Island, 1995
The absolute best part being when Gena Davis, presumably beaten and about to be killed by Captain Dog Brown, uncovers a 12 pound cannon aimed directly at him, glares at him, growls; "Bad Dog", lights the fuse and blows him out the back of the ship. Freakin' hilarious. I love it.
