Darbicus's "The 1,000 Must See Films"

Add to my lists | Print this list

1,000 Films that every self-respecting film buff must see.

This is not really considered a top 1,000 films list in the traditional sense. These are merely the first 1,000 films that every film buff should see. I’m currently working on a second list for this same topic of another 1,000 films.

Feel free to leave any comments or questions you might have.

I note the absence of 2 by Mizoguchi- Chikamatsu Monogatari and Osaka Elegy- which i think should be included, but presume Sansho, Ugetsu and Story of Late Chrysanthemums (at least) are still to come. And you seem to like Brakhage- more than some earlier shorts by Len Lye and Norman Mclaren and European avant-garde.
