The list has a mix of important, successful, popular and critically admired films, with a few extraordinary and personal favourites thrown in for added spice. Of course there are others i regret missing out- which will be found in my longer list of Essential Films and 100 favourites. No director has more than 3 films here. Of course no list can ever be satisfactory- i’m already tempted to change 20%. Some may be wondering where are Ben Hur, Rear Window, Amélie, Les 400 Coups, La Dolce Vita, Cinema Paradiso, Fanny and Alexander, Fight Club, Brokeback Mountain, The Sound of Music, E.T, The Graduate, Fargo? Or why no Bunuel or Almodovar?, Why nothing from South America?…
