What is your favorite underrated movie and why? What makes it underrated? How did you find it?

“Stir of Echoes” - this was the competition for “Sixth Sense” and came out the same time. I think it’s darker and much better than that movie and never gets credit for how good it is. It’s about and average guy and his average wife and their young son who sees dead people and how it impacts the entire nieghborhood. You don’t really see the end coming.

“Mumford”, the story of a drug addict who cleans up and creates the identity of a psychologist in a small town where he makes many friends. It’s an incredible all star cast with all kinds of sub plots and plots twists.

“Last Stop Wonderland” about a hopeless romantic seeking love through the Personals in the Boston Herald while well-meaning but hopeless plumber seeking to change his life crosses her path again and again and neigther notice. One of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s first movies.

You know, there are so many.

“Mumford, why does everyone in this town like you?” “I don’t know. Why do you like me?”

“The voices told me to dig, so I’m digging!”

“Am I Danny Parker, meth freak or Tom Allen, trumpet player? What am I? Husband? Druggie? Judas Iscariot? Friend? Enemy? I don’t know anymore. Maybe you can tell me who I am, friend.”

“Have you ever gotten laid by a… you know… normal sized woman?”

“October Sky” the under-rated true story about how Homer Hickam overcame his start in a coal town in W. Virginia to become a rocket scientist along with his doomed poverty-stricken friends. The haunting soundtrack will get you.

I can’t speak highly enough of “The Salton Sea”, the Val Kilmer black comedy that is sad, hilarious, incredibly violent and has multiple surprise twist endings.

Are there legal obligations to report the known whereabouts of a missing person that doesn’t want to be found?

Artists get better with age, e.g., painting. Yet when it comes to pop music, the famous work tends to be written when musicians are in their twenties. So, why aren't Bob Dylan or the Stones banging out amazing tunes now?

“A Very Good Year” with Russell Crowe and Marillon Cotillard, it’s his only comedy and she never looked sexier than in this movie. It was gentle and funny and not life changing but always worth a watch.

Also, the “Station Agent” which is a perfect slice of life that could be maudlin but never panders or falls into melodrama. A tour de force.

“Winter’s Bone” - Jennifer Lawrence’s first movie as the star and she carries the movie. This is one of my all time favorite movies about death and desperation and violence and meth.
