School of Rock (2003). Richard Linklater’s comedy film about a rock band member who impersonated his friend and built a rock band of fifth-grade kids at an elementary school.

Jack Black was so intense. The kids (now adults) were so fine.

Psycho (1960). Alfred Hitchcock’s thriller about a psychopathic innkeeper.

Honestly, I do not understand the rave about this movie. I understand that at a time it was made it broke some norms as having themes as sex and violence, and have pioneered new techniques in cinema.

I liked Citizen Kane way better.

The Double (2013). Jesse Eisenberg and Mia Wasikowska star in Richard Ayoade’s fantasy thriller about a man and his doppelganger.

A bit too eccentric for me.

The First Time (2012). The guy from The Maze Runner and The Internship gets to do it the first time.
