I can’t believe I forgot my second favorite trilogy of the 21st century (so far) … the Bourne movies with Matt Damon. :doh2:
 
I can tell that you know your films!

A few films that I love are ‘12 Angry Men’, ‘Grave of the Fireflies’ (an excellent anime film), ‘Baraka’ and ‘Contact’ - each for different reasons (although they are all entertaining and well-directed).
Yeah, I thoroughly loved Grave of the Fireflies!🙂 Akira was the other killer one from that era, which I always list as one of my favorite films.

I see you’re a Tom Disch fan, too; I like that. I’ve spent a lot of time with his stories and thoughts, as well.

Camp Concentration is one of my favorite SF novels.
