2001: A Space Odyssey
This movie, which was a playoff of “The Sentinel” by Arthur C. Clarke, explored a spaceship to Jupiter after human evolution was already found to be disrupted. What allowed this movie to stand out was the fact that it focused on subjects that most movies stay away from, including evolution and existentialism. The filmmakers made it as natural as it could be by using sounds and dialogs sparingly to make audiences believe they were in space. This film was said to be one of the most influential films ever made.
The Big Lebowski
The Big Lebowski was reminiscent of the story of somebody named “The Dude” played by Jeff Bridges. He found himself fighting in every way to buy a new carpet. There was so much going on every minute that rendered audiences as puzzled as “The Dude” is. The out-there characters of this film were what brought over the audience, at the top of it’s humorous and light-hearted narratives that kept its fans reciting the lines of the film in their daily lives.
