Fight Club
Shhhhhhhhh... you know the first rule of Fight Club. Films with a narration that I especially liked: Taxi Driver Annie Hall American Beauty Chinatown It's a Wonderful Life Rebecca To Kill A Mockingbird A Streetcar Named Desire LA Confidential Grand Budapest Hotel Wuthering Heights Remains Of The Day Arabian Nights (originally a TV mini series, but released on DVD as a full length film) True Grit (2010) Dr Zhivago I'm going to stop now. Film titles are leaping into my head and I can't type fast enough. |

I was always under the impression that narration in a movie was always considered to be an artistically lazy way of telling the story?
There's enough examples listed here that use it well and to the film's advantage - though if it's laziness you want few could beat the voice-over that informs us it was bacteria that killed the martians in Spielberg's War of the Worlds. About as slack-arsed as it gets. |
