Some tricks can get better with time and technology, and there are some that cannot be repeated - the magic cannot be recreated. It's the same with good movies. There is something so fulfilling and majestic about these classics that their legacy must remain unsullied for generations to come.

The Matrix

The Wachowski Brothers borrow the gravity-defying choreography of an East Asian action movies and turn it into a visually stunning cyber adventure. The Matrix was a watershed moment in film-making. Even if technology is now capable of much more exotic visual stunts, it will be no match for the originality this movie offers. The Matrix offers a little something for everyone, a reflection of the reality, a thing a very few movies could accomplish till date. No one should attempt a remake, just no one.

Requiem for a Dream

Aronofsky takes us through an excursion of serial addiction, unsettling and gruesome, that leads to an unforgiving experiment. Ellyn Burstyn and Jenniffer Connely are just wonderful in this movie, and Marlon Wayons is such a surprise in a serious role. With such powerful and naked exposure to the world of addiction, this leaves a scar that heals with caution. A must watch and a must leave-it-alone.
