Have You Seen These Three Cult Classic Movies?

May 2, 2013 12:00 pm
If you’re looking for a classic film to enjoy, why not go for an out-of-the-ordinary choice rather than one of the traditional classics you've seen a hundred times? Below are three unusual film choices certain to satisfy your appetite for novelty:
 
Bottle Rocket
This charming film from 1996 by Wes Anderson, features Owen and Luke Wilson as aspiring criminals planning a complicated book-store robbery scheme. Their plan leads them down a path of unexpected twists and turns. The movie features a host of quirky and unforgettable characters and dramatic situations that are sure to leave a lasting impression.

The Big Clock
This unique film noir classic, directed in 1948 by James Farrow, tells the story of a crime-magazine editor sent on a mission to obtain the identity of a murderer. The film features stunning cinematography and masterfully combines a number of different tones, ranging from serious to mystical to funny. 

Brazil
This Terry Gilliam film from 1985 has Orwellian undertones in its exploration of a British dystopia. The movie follows the story of a civil servant who falls in the love with a mysterious and elusive girl, while all around him the world is run by impossibly complicated government systems that enmesh even the most basic human activities in bureaucratic tangles.
