Just found your channel and been binging your best films for every year videos. Can't believe how few subs you have. One of the most underrated channels I've seen. The true definition of a hidden gem.

We watch your videos constantly over the last 2 months. Love your content and watch many on your lists. It's good to know your grandmother was a successful actress!

I happened to just check your channel this morning to see your last upload was months ago, only to get a notification minutes later that you uploaded! what a great coincidence 🤣

Loved the Mel Gibson tapes thrown in and other references. As always a great list. I love how you put a lot of effort into the honourable mentions. Most youtubers only mention a couple. Reviewing online to put together my list, I can’t believe I found 13 great films you didn’t mention even with your extensive honourable mentions already. These aren’t my only favourite films of 96 - I love Trainspotting just as much as anyone else - but I thought I'd make my list from these ones not mentioned just to give them some love. 90s films truly were incredible. 1. Muppets treasure island 2. The crucible 3. The phantom 4. Fear 5. The craft 6. First wives club 7. Spy hard 8. Eraser 9. Bulletproof 10. A time to kill 11. Executive decision 12. Harriet the spy 13. Sleepers

Wow. I just realized that I spent way too much time at the movies in 1996. I must have gone twice a week because I saw almost all of these at the theater. Great list as always.

Finally you have returned !!! Great as always! You are truly the best film KZfaqr - please keep them coming. When are you going to make a top favourite list of all time ?

Great video! By the way, 1997 is one of my favorite movie years, so I can't wait to see your top for that year. My favourite movies from 1997 (in no specific order) are: - Contact (based in a novel by Carl Sagan, to me is one of the best sci fi movies ever made). - Gattaca (also, one of the best sci fi movies ever) - Will Hunting - Life is Beautiful - Titanic - Men in Black

I love these retrospectives... you hit all my favorites (including Broken Arrow; a guilty pleasure) and gave me some films to add to my watchlist. Thank you!

Thank you! I've watched most of your videos, and they always hit the spot. Sometimes, I would be more adventurous, and go for some Chinese and Japanese delicacies beyond Ozu, Mizoguchi and Wong Karway. But it would be churlish to complain! Keep up the good work! As a Russian, I will toast you with a shot of vodka. Cheers!

Great video (and choices) as ever. Forgot how vibrant 'When We Were Kings' is, music and all. Some fine films in 1996. My Top Ten? 10. A Time To Kill 9. The Birdcage 8. Trees Lounge 7. The English Patient 6. Bottle Rocket 5. Secrets and Lies 4. Lone Star 3. Waiting For Guffman 2. Kolya 1. Gabbeh (wonderful, Iranian masterpiece about storytelling) p.s. Not just Googie Withers but also John McCallum as your grandparents? Amazing. What legends x

You are the best and most entertaining movie critic in media today. Found your videos about a month ago and couldn't stop watching them. Your passion for film comes through but not in a elitist, professorial kind of way. Funny, creative and brilliant. Never long-winded. You should have 50 times more subscribers. Thank you for doing what you do.

Great list. My favourite 6 are: 6 Jingle all the Way 5 The First Wives Club 4 Tremors 2: Aftershocks 3 Trainspotting 2 Executive Decision 1 Scream

In no particular order: 1) Happy Gilmore, 2) Independence Day, 3) A Thin Line Between Love and Hate, 4) The Truth About Cats & Dogs, 5) Jingle All The Way, 6) Swingers, 7) Primal Fear, 8) Don't be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood, 9) The Preacher's Wife, 10) The Nutty Professor, 11) A Very Brady Sequel, 12) Mars Attacks!, 13) Sling Blade, 14) Black Sheep, 15) Scream, 16) The Substitute, 17) Fargo, 18) Bulletproof, 19) Jerry Maguire, 20) Ghosts of Mississippi

can't wait for 1997, love your work!

Great to see When they were kings on the list. One of the best.

Great list. Fargo is untouchable at No.1 for me, though. Crazy considering it's not even my favourite film by the Coens. Looking forward to a 2023 top 10.

You do know for the iconic year of 1999 you're gonna have to do a top 20 for sure! ;)

1)Bottle Rocket 2)Fargo 3)Trainspotting

Wow thank you. I don't know why but I'm not receiving notifications from you. Well at least I can binge you today!

Your content is very interesting and you seem to put a lot effort into making these videos, keep up the great work

I've caught up on your top 10 lists and waited a while for a new one. Thanks. 1996 had better films than the last four years combined.

Great video! I think I need to give Trainspotting a rewatch. I liked it a lot when I first saw it back in high school but it did not stick with me much. My number one would have to be Breaking the Waves. I think it’s von Trier’s best. My second would be Beautiful Thing, a very underrated British gay film. And I will defend Space Jam to the bitter end! A true masterpiece. Keep up the good work!

Hi Harry I like your videos you put a lot effort in it and I have request could you do list Top 10 or Top 20 about every genre of all time Examples : Top 20 best action movies of all time Thx :)

Great year for film, great list.

Also in 1996: - The Funeral (Abel Ferrara) - Will it Snow for Christmas? (Sandrine Veysset) - Few of Us (Sharunas Bartas) - My Sex Life... or How I Got Into an Argument (Arnaud Desplechin)

I think it got mixed reviews but I think 2 Days In The Valley is a hidden gem. I saw the Siskel/Ebert review of The Rock when it was first out. Siskel didn't recommend it but Ebert did. I saw it anyway and wasn't disappointed.

You got good taste man.. all tremendous films. Edit: That’s awesome that your Gran was a movie star lol

Finally Man!! Keep going I love your list of films don’t lose the mojo . By The way you forgot to add Thesis by Alejandro Amenabar my favorite Foreign Language film of 1996

TOP 10 FILMS OF 1996: 1. Star Trek: First Contact 2. Sling Blade 3. Fargo 4. Trainspotting 5. Jerry Maguire 6. Scream 7. When We Were Kings 8. The Hunchback Of Notre Dame 9. Get On The Bus 10. Beautiful Girls

SLING BLADE! Fargo Everyone Says I love You Happy Gilmore Hard Eight (meant for 96, but I think its unofficially 97) Swingers Secrets & Lies A Family Thing GOOD JUNK: Girl 6, The Substitute, Jerry Maguire, Kingpin, High School High, Flirting with Disaster, Big Night, Dead Man, Don't Be a menace... A "bad" year for the 90's, but massively better than anything in the 2010s and beyond. I was a PA on Primal Fear & Michael, but those were forgettable.

Dusk till Dawn / Down Periscope / Mother Night / Courage Under Fire / Broken arrow and The English Patient. is my 1996 list.

Just don't make um like they used to... 96 great year.. my favorite out of the early 90s late 90s just right smack BANG in the middle. I want to back 😢😢😢😢😢❤❤

Looking For Richard 14. William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet 13. Pusher 12. The Daytrippers 11. Drifting Clouds 10. The People Versus Larry Flynt 9. Crash 8. Some Mother's Son 7. Michael Collins 6. Flirting With Disaster 5. The Crucible 4. Lone Star 3. Sling Blade 2. Secrets and Lies NUMBER ONE: BREAKING THE WAVES - a stunning performance by Emily Watson and an unforgettable film.

Good video + underrated 'Cable Guy'!

They're back!

Good to have you back, Harry

Aw, 1996. The only year I could stand Courtney Love and Gwyneth Paltrow. I’m still laughing hard your smoking while watching Mission Impossible bit. Hilarious! Silly comments aside, I still love watching Mars Attacks, the Birdcage, and of course, Fargo. But I think Cemetery Man starring Rupert Everett was released here in the US in 1996 is a must watch film and would have been on my list; despite being filmed and released in 1994 in Italy. It’s pure comedy madness!! If you haven’t seen it, I suggest you give it a go. You might not like it, but I loved it! And I’ve never watched Trainspotting so I’m an odd man out! And did I hear you right that Googie Withers is your grandmother?? Shine was a brilliant film and she did such an amazing job. I haven’t seen it in years, but I’m adding it to my films to watch this winter. Cheers.

Hey, what's the song at the top 10 wrap up at the end with the organ?

Importants films this year whitout mention: Tesis Lone Star The Van La promesse Familia Drifting Clouds Captain Conan A summer Tale That Thing you Do! Sleepers The Funeral Prisioner of The Mountains Basquiat

Slingblade looks hilarious

Great list! I'd also consider: Hamlet Looking for Richard Funny Games

I remember film critic Stanley Kauffmann writing that "When We Were Kings" should be retitled "When We Were [Don] King's Pawns."

Fargo is a classic

I enjoyed this video, Hunchback snub aside, which is understandable even though you really should give it a watch. It’s better than it looks. Here’s my Top 10.: 1. Hamlet 2. Lone Star 3. The Line King: The Al Hirschfeld Story 4. Big Night 5. Secrets & Lies 6. Primal Fear 7. The Hunchback of Notre Dame 8. Bottle Rocket 9. Jerry Maguire 10. Waiting for Guffman Honourable Mentions (The rest of my Top 20): Fargo, Grace of My Heart, Kolya, Muppet Treasure Island, Beautiful Girls, The People vs. Larry Flynt, The Mirror Has Two Faces, The Ghost and the Darkness, Swingers and That Thing You Do!

Definitely agree with you on The Rock being Michael Bay's best film.

No mention of Sleepers? One of the greatest casts ever and a phenomenal film. Eraser is a solid Arnold flick. Plus there were great comedies like Happy Gilmore and the underrated Cable Guy.

My Best Movies Of 1996 Space Jam The Nutty Professor A Thin Line Between Love And Hate Kazaam First Kid 101 Dalmatians Independence Day Don’t Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood Bulletproof Happy Gilmore The Cable Guy Homeward Bound II: Lost In San Francisco Jingle All The Way The Great White Hype Broken Arrow Mission Impossible Black Sheep Eraser Ransom

Last man Standing with Bruce Willis.

I cannot wait for Harry to move up towards the milennium (and beyond). Of course 1997 is great, (Titanic, L. A. Confidential, Jackie Brown, Donnie Brasco, GATTACA, and the somewhat overlooked Starship Troopers), but I'm really looking forward to 1999, 2002 and, especially 2004. I'd love to know what he thinks of my favorite American director of comedies of the last twenty or so years. Not Judd Apatow. Alexander Payne. Can't wait.

I thought the person who runs the channel died?

Can someone please tell me why this channel doesn't have millions of views for every video?... It's the best content about movies on KZfaq...
