Les Amants du Pont-Neuf (1991)

Les amants du Pont-Neuf / The Lovers on the Bridge
1991 | France | Leos Carax | ★★★★★

Leos Carax's masterfully kinetic, joyously sensuous Les Amants du Pont-Neuf is an utterly beautiful romantic drama, featuring unforgettable imagery, seductively tragic plotting, and a pair of absolutely wonderful performances from Juliette Binoche and Denis Lavant.

Cheers (1982-93)

1982-93 | USA | James Burrows, Glen Charles, & Les Charles | ★★★★★

Set in a lively Boston bar owned by a former sportsman, James Burrows, Glen Charles, and Les Charles's rightly venerated Cheers is a consistently warm and witty sitcom, packed with memorable episodes, cracking dialogue, and decidedly loveable characters.

"Laid-back Sam Malone, a former relief pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, owns and runs Cheers, a cozy bar in Boston. He hires smart, uptight -- and jilted -- Diane Chambers as a server, out of sympathy, but their attraction causes constant bickering. Wacky characters fill the bar: sarcastic waitress Carla, beer-loving accountant Norm, know-it-all postman Cliff. When Diane leaves Boston much later, Sam sells the bar, buys a boat and sails the world, but his boat sinks, so he returns. New, ambitious manager Rebecca Howe hires him back, but they love to hate each other too." IMDb
