movie recs sought

[devohoneybee]

So, I recently got a Netflix account. Um, any favorite movies you think I should see? Don't assume I've seen stuff, as I really haven't been to the movies in quite a while.

So far, I've seen Water, Fire (Earth is in the queue), and Perfect Creature (vampire flick with Dougray Scott, yummm). I've got the following in the queue besides Earth: Stardust, the latest Harry Potter, La Vie En Rose, Notes on a Scandal, The Lives of Others, Talk to Her, Crash, Next, 8 1/2, Across the Universe, Things to do Before You're 30 (Dougray Scott again, and Billie Piper), and Anchoress, Existenz, and some Inspector Morse (all for Chris Eccleston).

Jade is, according to my friend who has seen it, a "better Basic Instinct."

It's a movie about a cop (played by the inimitable David Caruso) who is after a "kinky call girl" (played by Linda Fiorntino, who I loved in Dogma). It was made back in the 90s, when Caruso left NYPD Blue. I haven't seen it, but after hearing my friend describe it, I'm all a-twitter to see it. Though, of course, the oddness of seeing Caruso all *young* compared to how he is now (I like older men!) will be interesting. (To say nothing of seeing him in *sex scenes!*)
