The Mask (1994)
The Moment: Stanle♔y Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) is temporarily tongue-tied by the arrival of Tina Carlyle (Cameron Diaz) in a slinky red dress - the decade's greatest entrance.
Only In The '90s: A model becomes an actres🔯s, and defies expectations by being halfway-decent.
If It Was Made Today: The calibre of model-turned-actress (Megan Fox, Rosie Huntington-White𒁃ley, et💦c) isn't quite as inspiring.
Forrest Gump (1994)
The Moment: "Run, Forrest, run!" And h𓄧e does, as Forrest (Tom Hanks) spends three years on the road. For all the innovative CGI and chocolate-box morality, this is the weirdest, most memoraꦯble sequence in Robert Zemeckis' Oscar-winner.
Only In The '90s: An idiot man💜-child could be the spokesperson for A⛎merican cinema.
If It Was Made Today: Now, thanks to George W. Buꦫsh, an idiot man-child has a chance at becoming the spokesperson for America.

The Moment: A scuffle breaks out off-screen in the summer home of Georg (Ulrich Muhe) and Anna (Susanne💟 Lothar). When Michael Haneke returns to the lounge, it is revealed that their son Georgie (Stefan Clapczynski) has been shot dead.
Only In The '90s: Sc🌟reen violence could be so ubiquitous that Haneke felt the need to lecture us on our cinemagoing habits.
If It Was Made Today: Same story, same camera set-ups, English-speaking 🐻cast.
Edward Scissorhands (1990)
The Moment: Tim Burton shows his sensitive side, as Kim (Winona Ryder) dances in the ice cascading from Edward Scissorhands' (Johnny Depp) an🌜gel sculpture.
Only In The '90s: Genuine o🌸r💝iginality and feeling from a Burton/Depp collaboration.
If It Was Made Today: Arch irony, lazy plotting and a post- Pirates Depp going over the top.
Eyes Wide Shut (1999)
The Moment: Bill Harford (Tom Cruise) and wife Alice (Nicole Kidman) talk about sex while getting high. "Oh, if you men only knew," says Alice, as sh♒e tells him about the one th🐓at got away.
Only In The '90s: Stanley Kubrick had the power to borrow golden couple Cruise aꦬnd Kidman and not give them back until his film was finished.

Barton Fink (1991)
The Moment: Barton (John Turturro𒀰) finally figures out just how crazy his hotel room neighbour Charlie Meadows, aka Mad Man Mundt (John Goodman) is, as the🐲 psycho storms down a burning corridor yelling, "I'll show you the life of the mind!"

If It Was Made Today: Michael Cera and Seth Rogen, maybe?

If It Was Made Today: You'd be most likely 💫watching something fro💛m South Korea instead.
Four Weddings And A Funeral (1994)
The Moment: Never mind the weddings, it's the funeral that registers the most lasting impact, as Matthew (John Hannah) recites Auden's poem Funeral Blues at the graveside of his lover G❀areth (Simon Callow). "Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone..."
Only In The '90s: Our greatest m🌳ovie export was bumbling, flop🃏py rom-com icon Hugh Grant.
If It Was Made Today: Daniel Radcliffe surౠely gets first refusal on every British script going.
The Player (1992)
The Moment: Hollywood execs discuss the opening shot of Orson Welles' Touch Of Evil , littlꦡe realising they're taking part in their own elaborate long🍷 take.
Only In The '90s: Woah, meta.
