Apocalypse Now. It's just perfect.
There are several cuts of the film itself around. The planter's wife was totally cut out of the first release, for example.
And FWIW the best script is Chinatown.

Not the best, but "Do the Right Thing" deserves a shoutout.

Good Will Hunting
Scream
Unforgiven
Die Hard
Royal Tenanbaums
Poltergeist
When Harry met Sally
If you are studying screenplays, these are some of the best in their genres to study.
Scream is the greatest of its genre, and arguably a top 5 script of all time.

So in college when we studied screenplays the two films we were shown were Paris, TX and the Passenger.

Meh, I love AN (and in the minority, I prefer the Redux), but I'm not sure that is even the best FFC script of the decade.
No, I'm not talking about G1 or G2, I'm talking about Patton.

What are you calling modern?
Apocalypse Now is 45 years old. It's closer in release to Casablanca than it is to today.
