10 Hippest Movies of All Time

Add to my lists | Print this list

John Leland, author of Hip: A History attests these are the hippest movies of all time.

Note: There are only 9 items on this list because number 10 is actually a video game, not a movie (Grand Theft Auto, Vice City.) I guess the author forgot what he was trying to do.

Another Note: I added GTA: Vice City to the list because it was on the author’s list, and I believe that he feels it is an extension of the film medium, and ‘hip’ in a similar way. (Edit 5/9/10)

What a hip cat he was.


River's Edge — 6 years ago

are you sure that’t the right one? i kind of think the one with Crispin Glover, Keanu Reeves, and Ione Skye is a little hipper.
