The perfect double feature
At times, I'll watch a movie and think it would be a perfect double feature with another film that's similar in style. For example, when I saw "Nobody's Fool" (with Paul Newman), overall it reminded me of "Beautiful Girls" for some odd reason. And just last night, I saw "The Yards" for the first time (which I enjoyed a great deal) . And I kept thinking of "Copland" while watching it. Besides sequels (which would be an obvious choice), what movies do you think would make the perfect double feature?

A Director's night would be great:
Godfather and Godfather II - Coppola Rushmore and Royal Tenenbaums (or Bottle Rocket) - Wes Anderson Vertigo and Rear Window (or Psycho) - Hitchcock Alien and Black Hawk Down - Ridley Scott Spiderman and Evil Dead - Sam Raimi Mousehunt and Pirates of the Caribbean - Gore Verbinski Saving Private Ryan and Schindler's List - Spielberg Goldeneye and The Mask of Zorro - Martin Campbell |
Whenever I watch two movies back to back I like having two different tones. Mix a light with a quiet or dark movie. I find it to be better for me not to overlap emotions too much.
But to answer intent of question.. Fly Away Home Winged Migration Could also add Never Cry Wolf for a triple feature if it had a decent dvd release. |
A few days after seeing Elephant I watched Targets, and it struck me that the combo would be an interesting double feature.

Another pair:
"Shoot To Kill" and "Last of the Dogmen" |
Ed Wood and Plan 9 from Outer Space.
