story telling movies

[Deleted member 56225]

I read a lot here where everyone has their music stuff, etc. I thought about starting a thread about movies that have a story. They don't make these movies like this anymore. What I mean is movies from redford. His acting sucks but the guy is a story teller (spy game, gerimia johnson, horse whisperer, the natural). to movies that are ....(my favorite the good, the bad and the ugly .... three dudes chasing gold with no chick shit and the best score ever in movie with the most iconic shootout ever.) I guess I want to hear about great story telling movies..... scenes like christefor walken and dennis hopper in true romance, the opening in inglorious basterds, just movies that you want to watch again and again. Even christmas vacation!!!!!! It just seems like there no good movies anymore. Change my mind!

The closing notes of Stand By Me telling about the friend who was killed attempting to diffuse an argument in a fast food joint.

“I never had friends later on in life like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus does anyone?”

" Legends of the Fall " and " A River Runs Through It " are probably my 2 favorite story telling movies.

I like the Sackett's movies. Louis L'amour could spin a yarn.

Boondock Saints...their prayer was epic

Bless my soul. I really love that rock n roll!

I didn’t know if the first post would be a quote or utter disgust. Glad it was the first!

Lots of good ones so far. I'm going to have to go back and watch.

Unforgiven and Open Range

I'm going to have to go with utter disgust. Absolute worst movie ever, bar none.

The fact is almost every movie put out now is a remake ….there are very few people with real ideas in Hollywood.

One of the greatest things about growing up in a small town. My best friends when I was 12 are still my best friends now. I don't see them as much as I would like. We did a fishing trip airbnb last year with 2 I haven't seen in person since my wedding and within 5 minutes of meeting up we were all acting 12 again like we never been apart. Same with hunting trips every year.
Sure I have new friends, but nothing will ever compare to those 6 or 7 buddies I've shared my life with since I was in preschool.
