Top Ten Lists 14 Movies You Should See Before You Die from FOD Wire According to Will Ferrell and Adam McKay I cannot dispute any film that Adam put on this list. They are all gems. That having been said, I have put together an auxiliary list that if watched, might make you say to yourself, "Wait a minute...I'm glad I watched these before I died, as well!" I made a point of not putting in Jaws, Star Wars, Apocalypse Now, Goodfellas or any of the movies that are on every human being’s top ten list. Goodfellas Screw it. Election It's so perfectly made in the way it combines the macro with the micro of society. The Man Who Would Be King Caine and Connery and the legacy of Alexander the Great. Tin Men I was tempted to put this number one. Cinema Paradiso Call me a cheeseball, but I cry like a baby every time I see this movie. Nights of Cabiria You don't always hear this listed with Felinni's other greats but it's beautiful, sad and Gulietta Messina is astounding. Airplane! I saw this six times in the theater. Series 7: The Contenders The Exorcist Mail Order Wife
