After taking in a movie matinee at Toronto's "Bloor Cinema" (now the "Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema") one beautifully sunny day in April of 2000, I called my brother:
"I just saw the best f*cking movie ever made!"
"What did you see?"
Yes, what did I see?
A clue, although it would function more as trivia since it wouldn't mean a lot to the reader: I first saw it when I was a kid living in (West) Germany. The screening took place at CFB Baden-Soellingen's "Astra" theatre, a few years after the flick in question was first released. My Grade-3 schoolmates and I enjoyed our day at the movies. (From a seat behind me: "He won't shoot him.") Little did I know my rating would fly sky-high years later, and involve a modicum of essential profanity.

Star Wars
I first saw Star Wars on Friday, July 8, 1977. This then teen enjoyed it, but it hardly elicited a "best ____ movie ever made". Actually, I saw it only once the first time around. I will let a few answers come in before I reveal the title of picture in question. Thanks for the guess!
