Mental Floss: The Curious Movie Buff (A Miscellany of Fantastic Films) - Page 4

Movies recommended in Mental Floss' The Curious Movie Buff: A Miscellany of Fantastic Films from the Past 50 Years* by Jennifer M. Wood. Films include featured movies and those in themed lists (ex. 5 Essential Midnight Movies, 11 Offbeat Romantic Comedies, etc.). I left out lists featuring trivia, not recommendations (ex. 10 Obvious Movie Anachronisms).
*1970-2021 (and one 1968 film that snuck in)
