What five favorite movies of yours would tell someone everything they needed to know about you?

If, for example, you were dating someone new or making a new friend, and you wanted them to know you really well, but you could only teach them about you by giving them movies to watch, which five would you tell them they needed to see and why?

    It seems to me that if I could only share myself with five movies, but then add the "why" part of your question for each movie, then that takes the fun out of the question. I'd be talking too much about the movie and tell them about myself. So I'm just going to list the movies and let the hypothetical person figure it all out for his/her self.

    George Romero's original 1968 "Night of the Living Dead"

    Lars von Trier's "Dancer in the Dark"

    Michael Haneke's original "Funny Games" - - his original version only (he made a remake of it which I haven't seen)

    "Strangers in Good Company"

    "Airplane!"
