The Breakfast Club (1985)

Coming of age masterpiece by John Hughes. Forgotten how good this one is. Struck me as the teen version of Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf. Indeed it is playlike. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088847/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

The Big Lebowski (1998)

As Peter Bradshaw from the Guardian put it, this shaggy-dog stoner LA noir may be the Coens’ comic masterpiece. I really enjoyed it the second time around. Amazing performance by Bridges, but it's a real team effort, e.g. Turturro was hillarious.  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118715/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3
