Fox Classics usually has a few good movies. I decided to watch a few of them - and I have to say, I really liked 'Zulu', myself.

Perhaps the best theme music for a war related film ever.

Memento by Christopher Nolan is pretty good. It's like inception, in terms of the psychological thriller theme.
