1 Film by 126 of Greatest Directors Ever for Budding Cinephile

I have seen many lists and decided to do my own list of best films need to see if want to consider yourself a true cinephile. I used a couple of lists to compile and could have gone on for a number of more directors. My list is short of woman and directors of color unfortunately but it is a great place to start before branching out.
A true cinephile should have seen at least 100 of these films
