This list was published in Rio’s Manchete Magazine in 1998. "The Manchete selection was made by a group of critics, historians and researchers, which explains why some of the most popular movies like the 1950s chanchadas (musical comedies), comedian Mazzaropi’s works and those of contemporary Trapalhões never made the cut. On the other hand the list includes little-known gems from the beginning of the century like Humberto Mauro’s Tesouro Perdido and Adhemar Gonzaga’s Barro Humano. "The movies were chosen by movie experts Alberto Shatovsky, Antônio Moniz Vianna, Dejean Magno Pellegrin, Ely Azeredo, Fernando Albagli, Geraldo Queiroz, Gil Azevedo Araújo, José Lino Grünewald, Jurandir Noronha, Michel do Espírito Santo and Valério de Andrade. Many of them have dedicated their lives to the films, collecting them, writing about them and sometimes making them themselves. " www.brazzil.com/p12oct98.htm
