Best Rainy Day Movie??

Well, is it an early Hitchcock or a late Cary Grant movie? Bela Tarr, Wim Wenders, Lynch Joel Madden or Spielberg? What is the all time greates rainy day movie to rent? Halloween movies definitely acceptable. Oh I should mention I feel like I have H1N1 and have been in my bed for two days straight and am bored out of my skull.

:pukel:

My fave thus far for today, Topkapi by Hitchcock! But what film is the best rainy day film ever?

I'm thinking "The Godfather: Part II." Or, if you're feeling particularly delirious, "Children of Paradise". Or "Giulietta degli Spiriti" - Fellini's always awesome when you're out of your mind. Even "La Strada" or "Americord".

DH recommends "Once Upon a Time in America". And Bertolucci's "1900".

Nothing beats "Independence Day" for sheer everything - it makes you remember 60 other movies.

Also, "Angels in America" is on HBO on Demand. Is good.

I could keep going....

The City of Lost Children

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover

Blade Runner

Black Rain

The Fall

Love Liza

Tokyo!

The Science of Sleep

I like scary movies on a rainy dark dreary day so I vote for the original Halloween followed by Nightmare on Elm St and ending with Jeepers Creepers.

Barry Lyndon by Kubrick

the terror in tiny town, an all midget western

I love Film Noir on a dark, rainy day. Double Indemnity, The Third Man, Touch Of Evil, The Big Clock, The Big Sleep...

The Fifth Element, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Anything by James Whale, Blade Runner....
