The Musketeers Of Pig Alley (dir: DW Griffith, 1912)
Reputedly the first "gangster movie" (though it's more a scuffle between two rival street gangs). I actually watched this twice - it's only 17 minutes long! The little details of what's going on are important to keep up with the storyline.
8/10
"The Tokyo Rose of the Trailer Park"
Pixels: 7/10.

Little Caesar (1931)
Now get this! The first of the three great gangster movies of the pre-code era, see (along with The Public Enemy and Scarface). If you don't believe it, better get your hat and start running, cos you're all through.
9/10
"The Tokyo Rose of the Trailer Park"
These are the Top 10 films I saw in September:
1. Psycho (Hitchcock, 1960): 10/10
2. 2001: A Space Odyssey (Kubrick, 1968): 9/10
3. It Happened One Night (Capra, 1934): 9/10
4. Over the Edge (Kaplan, 1979): 9/10
5. Rebel Without a Cause (Ray, 1955): 9/10
6. The Apartment (Wilder, 1960): 8/10
7. The Limey (Soderbergh, 1999): 8/10
8. Persona (Bergman, 1966): 8/10
9. Pleasantville (Ross, 1998): 7/10
10. Pierrot le Fou (Godard, 1965): 7/10
Gamera (1965)
Forget the teenage mutants, this is real turtle power! The first in the Japanese monster franchise to rival Godzilla. The effects - and the monster - stand up surprisingly well. I watched the Japanese original from a Mill Creek Blu Ray set. Choose this, not the re-hashed version created by the first U.S. distributor.
6/10

"The Tokyo Rose of the Trailer Park"
Remember the Titans 9/10
Set in the 1970s in USA. Black and white were still segregated, but a football(American football) club accepted both colours and the coach (Denzel Washington). But this caused a rift within the small town, but Denzel over comes the obstacles and the team wins the league, and acts more like a community.

Harassing Peoples' Wallets and Taking peoples' Souls since the Beginning of Time
Hell Ride (Larry Bishop, 2008)
What to say; it's a biker flick! Plenty of bikes, women, revenge and betrayals. And it's got Dennis Hopper, Vinnie Jones and David Carradine.
9/10
