Has Greg seen Jean de Florette? It’s a French film I bet he’d enjoy. That’s humanity, the old man and his son!
i find people who claim to only like those “great film” criterion collection type stuff, while many are great movies, merely lack personal critical discrimination and so their egos hide behind “academic consensus” as some sort of fig leaf, like English majors who pretend to like war and peace more than Tolkien. My revealed preference favorites might be: Conan the barbarian, clash of the titans, Star Wars trilogy, various anime. For example, where is romantic love in any of you guys’ selections? That’s a big theatre of life, perhaps the biggest.
