It's an odd list

For pure female evil, I recommend All About Eve. It was delicious!

Vertigo screwed with my head very effectively. It's also beautiful, a love song to the most beautiful city in America.

I don't recommend Amelie - it was too light, pretty but completely forgettable. Why, though, do people still recommend Lawrence of Arabia? The acting in it is just plain bad.
