Great 1990s Films You May Have Missed

Sort by: Showing 20 items
People who added this item 15  Average listal rating (5 ratings) 7.6  IMDB Rating 7.3 
1. The Nasty Girl (1990)
Much better than Schindler's List - since the Nazis should be mocked, rather than taken seriously.
Goofoff's rating:

People who added this item 34  Average listal rating (23 ratings) 7.5  IMDB Rating 7.4 
2. My Father's Glory (1990)
First part of a wonderful double feature (the other part is "My Mother's Castle") adaptation of two of Marcel Pagnol's novels.
Goofoff's rating:

People who added this item 24  Average listal rating (16 ratings) 7.4  IMDB Rating 7.3 
3. My Mother's Castle (1990)
Goofoff's rating:

People who added this item 7  Average listal rating (2 ratings) 9  IMDB Rating 6.8 
4. A Woman's Tale (1991)
Sheila Florance (who was dying of cancer as the film was shot) stars in Paul Cox's moving story a woman dying of cancer. Not as morbid as it sounds.
Goofoff's rating:

People who added this item 53  Average listal rating (31 ratings) 6.5  IMDB Rating 6.9 
5. Flirting (1991)
Funny how the Aussies make great 'coming of age' films (see "Walkabout," "The Year My Voice Broke," etc.).
Goofoff's rating:

6. Delicatessen (1991)
Great dark comedy from the makers of "Amelie" and "City of Lost Children."

10. The Hours and Times (1991)
Intriguing alternative Beatles history from a GLTB point of view.

(Why does Safari think I misspelled "Beatles"?)

People who added this item 54  Average listal rating (31 ratings) 7.6  IMDB Rating 7.5 
11. The Stolen Children (1992)
Maybe the best movie of the 1990s. Why isn't Amelio better known?
Goofoff's rating:

People who added this item 33  Average listal rating (22 ratings) 7.5  IMDB Rating 7.4 
12. Raining Stones (1993)
Ken Loach's story of a working-class English father dedicated to buying a first communion dress for his father may be more relevant today than back in the early 1990s. Intense, emotional film about those most affected by 'austerity.'

20. Three Kings (1999)
Goofoff's rating:



Ok, not all of them quite "great," but still all of them are worth seeing and don't get their propers today. List heavy on the mid-1990s - only 'cause I saw a lot more movies then.
