I've seen Cidade de Deus (City of God) twice already and I can't get that film out of my head. The themes are so haunting and so terrifyingly real that you have to question if it's believable. I can't agree with Bram Stoker's Dracula, though, because I loved the book but I don't think the movie gave it justice. But Gary Oldman is great in this, though.

Casablanca is one of my favorite all-time movies along with Gone with the Wind and Sabrina. And I of course agree with Pulp Fiction. It's simply Tarantino's best work and one of the groundbreaking and memorable films ever.

Other films you guys should check out:

-The Crime of Padre Amaro [starring Gael Garcia Bernal, actor in Y Tu Mama Tambien]
-Mullholland Drive [directed by David Lynch, starring Naomi Watts]
-Kill Bill [of course, A Quentin Tarantino film]
-North Country [starring Charlize Theron]
-The Beach [directed by Danny Boyle, starring Leonardo DiCaprio]
