My top five is in constant flux. I'd call all of those films damn near flawless. They are masterpieces of the cinema as far as I'm concerned. I put NCfOM fifth this time, but it could easily be any other number in that top five.

I think there are probably quite a few people who haven't. He's great, though. You should check out Fanny and Alexander. It's very(, very) long, but also very beautiful and very accessible.

I would say yes, but my only reservation is the length. I could see that scaring off a first timer before they even try.

Perhaps The Seventh Seal or The Virgin Spring would be better entry points.
