Re: What was the FIRST movie you remember seeing that had a PROFOUND affect on you?
the serpent and the rainbow, saw it when I was about 10, being buried alive is a hell of a thing for a kid to ponder,

Jacob's ladder, about the same age, psychosis is also a bit heavy for a 10 year old to ponder...

Both very good ... Jacobs ladder was definately a mind screw!

I remember seeing The Exorcist when I was a little kid and it scared the crap out of me.

That was back when most everybody still went to church, so it was a different time in America.

It wasn't like today where everyone is so desensitized that nothing phases them.

As an adult, the movie that had a huge emotional impact on me was "Saving Private Ryan". I was in my 30's. I've seen other war movies, but this one was different.

Oh that was EXCELLENT ...

So it seems to be Oz as the most influential so far along with ET the matrix. Back to the future has been mentioned several times too.
Oh and star Wars!

As an adult, I would say Amistad hit me pretty hard.

(my ancestors were slave capture / trade privateers sanctioned by Queen Liz I)

When Cinque was in the greenhouse with Adams and he saw a
tiny African violet under glass- it was something beautiful and familair in a foreign, cruel land..

Before the trial for his freedom, Cinque said:

"I will call into the past, far into the beginning of time, and beg them to help me at the judgment. I will reach back and draw them into me. And they must come … for at this moment I am the whole reason they have existed at all."



That was so powerful.
