'American Beauty'.
It never fails to make me realise just how little things really matter. If i'm ever feeling down about something i can always put that film on and it'll cheer me up.
The camera work is a bit samey, which can get irritating after the 1000th mid-close up shot, but the scene with Lester blackmailing his boss is immense.
Yep.
Definitely in my top 5.
