The Best Reviewed Movies

Original Source Of The Shakespeare-X Message.

 

The American Film Institute polls its members, who are film industry professionals. Then it makes lists. Lots of them.

This is better than the Best Picture Oscar list. But I wouldn't pay too much attention to where the movies fall on the list. They like successful movies in Hollywood.

Best 1000 Reviewed Movies

 

The Best 1,000 Movies Ever Made By The film critics of the New York Times. Published in 2004.

This is a very good list. It includes foreign movies. See them all. Then quibble.

 

List Breakdown by Production Year:

00 - 0
20s - 2
30s- 87
40s - 128
50s - 152
60s - 159
70s - 167
80s - 189
90s - 125
20 - 03 = 41 - on course for 142

Somehow those clever New York Critics have proved that movies were at their best in 1980s. I guess they don't go to the movies much, because that is the decade in which the movies were first destroyed by the blockbuster, the sequel, and the teen comedy.
