Casablanca

And honorable mention to Blade Runner, which I always felt I ought to like, but fell asleep a half hour into both times I tried to watch it.

But I have to say your list strikes me as odd, spexx--why would anybody be shocked? Citizen Kane is one of the greats of all time, but it's ollld. How many people go out of their way to see old films just because they're classics? And Fatal Attraction? Dances With Wolves (which I've never seen)? I have a hard time putting these in the category of "films that you're culturally illiterate if you haven't seen."
