The Thin Man
The characters are the invention of Dashiell Hammett, although the urbane chemistry between Loy and Powell as Nick and Nora Charles is the ultimate in dipsomaniacal detective mystery and screwball comedy.

Shogun Assassin
This film is a fascinating Americanized amalgam of two Japanese movies: Lightning Swords of Death and Baby Cart at the River Styx. Shogun Assassin combines bits and pieces from both films, adds an unfortunately bad dub track, and creates a seamless whole.

Edward Scissorhands
Burton's combination of fantastic and real imagery adds to this story's dreamy but satiric edge. Depp, as the the fragile but irresistibly fabulous title character, is "shear" delight.
