Make your list of your top 15 personal favorite De Palma films! In other words; it does not have to be what you consider to be the top 15 films of greatest cinematic merit; but rather your personal favorites. I will add mine a bit later

Hi! This website is for the De Palma Aficionados How did your interest for De Palma begin? Personally I saw Carlito's Way when I was 16 years old. As I left the theater I though it was nice, but not that exceptional. But as the days passed, the images from the movie would not leave me. I went back to the theater to see it again. The images in that movie are as effective as those of a dream. Snake Eyes was the first film I ever avaited feverishly, and since then every new De Palma film was an event for me. I must idmit I have been a bit dissapointed with the last two movies, but I am very curious about PASSION...

At imdb.com I can see that moviegoers under 30 have given the film about an 8/10 rating, and the under 18 crowd almost 9/10 so that gives me quite a bit of hope for the potential commercial succcess of this movie. After all, most moviegoers are under 30. (Although not me ,and I go at least once a week )

Having followd Brian's career for almost 20 years now it is interesting to see the wildy disparate reaction to "Passion". I have not seen the film yet, but the reactions are not surprising.
Films like Dressed to Kill, Blow Out, Scarface and Carlito's Way were all met with quite a bit of hostility from critics when they were released but are now considered masterpieces.
