In order, for me:
1.Truly Madly Deeply
2.Cold Mountain
3.The English Patient
4.The Talented Mr.Ripley
5.Breaking and Entering
6.Mr.Wonderful
"Mr.Wonderful" is the weakest, I think in large part because it wasn't Anthony Minghella's own script.
I think(in contrast to some other people on this board)that he is an excellant filmmaker, wonderfully sensitive and intelligent about the intricacies of human relationships.

- The English patient. My all-time favourite. Nothing beats this movie. It has everything.
- Cold Mountain. Also a very good movie.
- The talented Mr. Riply. I think I have to re-watch this, there have been too many years since I saw it, so I don't really remember it.
Braking and entering was really disapoynting. Compared to the other movies, this is nothing. You could allways watch it, but don't excpect too much.

I like The English Patient, Cold Mountain, Breaking and Entering
but THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY is my #1 favourite.
I never get bored to watch it over and over again, especially the scene with Tom-Dickie.
great cast and acting (they're oscar nominees and winners now!), interesting plot, beautiful scenes/picture, incredible music.
I won't forget the song "Tu Vuo' Fa' L'Americano" performed by Jude and Matt.

I loved this film from the first time I saw it. It's as underrated a love
story as "Ghost," with a similar premise, is overrated. One of the best
romantic movies of the past twenty years!
R.I.P., Mr. Minghella.

I have seen only 5 of his films, so these are how I would list them:
Cold Mountain (I cannot help crying every time I see this movie)
The Talented Mr Ripley
Breaking and Entering
Truly, Madly, Deeply
The English Patient
and yes, I'm a huge Jude Law fan, that's why I got to know Minghella's work. -

- The English Patient: Anthony Minghella's masterpiece, an endlessly beautiful and powerful film, poetry in motion and sound, his gift to us film lovers (as you can see I'm quite a fan of this film)
- The Talented Mr. Ripley
- Cold Mountain
- Breaking and Entering
It's not the years, honey, it's the mileage.

The English Patient is my favourite. Very moving, superbly directed and beautifully shot movie, and in my mind gets a lot of undeserved backlash. I like/love all of Anthony Minghella's work, not just English Patient and The Talented Mr Ripley but also on the three Inspector Morse episodes he helped write. Very talented writer/director, words cannot describe how genuinely saddened I was at his death.
