So many, it's too hard to choose the best. Blazing Saddles was okay but just too long. Every Which way but loose, Bridge on the River Kwai, Rocky, The War of the Roses.
Trivia: High Noon between Lloyd Bridges and Cary Cooper, at the end of the take, the Bridges boys was in the loft of the barn watching and one giggled at his brother. This made Lloyd look up and they had to reshoot.

Being interested in both images and moral questions about the use of violence, I like Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai" and Altman's "McCabe and Mrs. Miller." Both should be studied by cinema students.
