Movies that changed my life

Movies have become a big part of the New York experience. Between me being exhausted after a week at work and Dane trying to stretch his study hours til 9 or 10 on Fridays, it has become our go to reward at the end of each week.  And with all these movies, we've come across some real gems:

Cinema Paradiso -A real classic with a great film score.
Spirited Away - Caused me to take back earlier sentiments about anime.
Castaway on the Moon - So strange but so well made.
Mud - A Sundance/Cannes D'Or festival film with Matthew McConaughey. You will want to brush his teeth the whole time, but it is a great story.
Big Fish - I don't know how I missed this when it came out a few years ago.
Rare Exports - The newest Christmas family tradition.

So I've never really done this on this blog--usually just sending random thoughts into the void--but today I am asking for a response. After watching Cinema Paradiso last weekend and remembering what great movies can do, we came up with a list of movies we will try to see over the next few years, and I want to add your suggestions. So what movies have been your favorites?  And they don't necessarily need to be top 10 material (this list certainly isn't), just movies that left you thinking about them days after. And then I will watch them and let you know what I think.
