Ninotchka would be in my top 25. I just love her in that film.

And there's one with Joseph Cotton as a SERIAL KILLER. I'm a bit drugged right now, so I can't remember right now. He plays this girl's uncle, and he's known as the Hat Box Killer, I think? Or am I mixing two films together.

 

[Big Dick McGee]

What, no Schindler's List?

 

[Tisiphone]

Blech to Schindler's List! I'm still pissed it beat out Shawhank Redemption for best film.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I think you're mixing two movies, but he did play a creepy murdery guy in Gaslight.

No, Gaslight he was the detective, Charles Boyer is the killer.

And Shadow of a Doubt is the one I'm thinking of where he's the serial killer.
