I got to thinking about genres and types of movies I like to watch. And I have to say, I have a very unique taste. Very specific things excite my wonderment and curiousity. I have talked about a few on here, but there are others, some of which I made up terms for, that I haven't really delved into. Do you have any very specific types of films that you enjoy? Please feel free to share!
Here is my list (some genres overlap with each other). Each category links to one of my favorite films in that given genre.

I clicked on the Sweltering Deep South Dramas category. Tennesse Williams is a real favorite of mine and this is one of the great films of his work. 'I guess it's just all about handin' on to that hot tin roof.' Certainly worked for Ms. Taylor.
