![William Holden delivers his iconic line in the opening of THE WILD BUNCH [1969], setting up what I think is maybe the best and most well-timed director credit flash ever.](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2035361284355465252/ext_tw_video_thumb/2035361248775143424/pu/img/yxR3JjL25hyMEPMj.jpg)

![SEXY BEAST [2000] Directed by Jonathan Glazer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sir Ben Kingsley put everyone back on their heels with this uncharacteristically unhinged, psychotic and volatile performance bordering on frightening. Supporting actors Ray Winstone and Ian McShane are also bang-on.](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2042988243650498789/ext_tw_video_thumb/2042988104743817218/pu/img/rolqWQtIYyr-iN7z.jpg)

![BLAZING SADDLES [1974] 🔥🤠 Directed by Mel Brooks ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2048500238822891775/ext_tw_video_thumb/2048499994525618176/pu/img/RuLkuVjUZXl3fnvt.jpg)
![MASTER AND COMMANDER: THE FAR SIDE OF THE WORLD [2003] is Peter Weir's masterpiece. Based on the first novel in Patrick O'Brian's acclaimed Aubrey/Maturin series, it's set in 1805, during the Napoleonic Wars, with HMS Surprise operating in the South Atlantic and Pacific. It's incredible and I'm obsessed with it. Naval experts and historians agree this movie is one of the best and most accurate representations of day-to-day life and procedures on a ship-of-the-line at that time. At typical fighting range, a 12-pound iron cannonball traveling a quarter mile per second has enough energy to pass through TWO SOLID FEET of oak hull planking, sending lethal wood splinters flying in all directions, killing or maiming men on the other side. The splinters were often deadlier than the ball itself. That's a detail the film actually gets right: surgeons of the period pulled more wood out of men than iron. That's with a 12-pounder. Imagine what one of the bigger ships could do with 18 and 32 pound cannons 😵](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2043008553837863106/ext_tw_video_thumb/2043008376351969280/pu/img/Koy7_NMMzWk_2LBz.jpg)

![WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION [1957] Directed by Billy Wilder The first time I heard this crack from Charles Laughton, I had to pause it because I was laughing so hard. Absolutely unrepentant savagery 😂](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2043373395451031731/ext_tw_video_thumb/2043373369194663936/pu/img/F2WQ2YQ723pMH6-y.jpg)
