I had the pleasure of introducing my wife to The Last Picture Show the other day. She liked it more than I had expected. I think there's something about Ben Johnson's character's speech at the water tank about age, regret, and lost love that resonates in ways that will move most people of a certain age.
It's a beautiful, understated film. Check it out if you haven't.

Attempted to watch 'Troy' (the one with Brad Pitt). Lost interest a few minutes in when a caption reading 'Port of Sparta' popped up.
