          I would argue Beetlejuice there.

          Wristcutters: A Love Story made great use of dead people in lead roles.

            64) Dersu Uzala (dir. Akira Kurosawa)
            ...best film about the friendship of a Russian officer and an aboriginal Nanai tribesman during a surveying expedition to the area of Shkotovo in Ussuri region in 1902.
            NMU Hockey Since 1976 ...there at the beginning.

              And there was some ferocious competition in that category!

              I have only seen a few Kurosawa films, but Dersu Uzala is my favorite.

                    Great film! Won Best Foreign Language Film for 1975. Just about anything by Kurosawa is worth watching.

                    If you ever saw the Jon Voight, Eric Roberts, Rebecca DeMornay film Runaway Train, Kurosawa wrote the original screenplay for that. A movie that Eric Roberts was actually good in...
