    'You talking to me?'

    It's about a taxi driver - De Niro - who slowly is driven completely insane about his life and the low lives around New York.

    That's a short summary that doesn't give much away. Definitely worth a watch. My favourite Martin Scorsese film.

    Too many favourites to cut down to five but I will recommend one film that is an amazing animated one. Beowulf in Blu Ray is one of the best I've seen recently.
