500 Utterly Essential Movies to Cultivate Great Taste in Cinema - Page 6

"Some professors of Film Studies at Harvard University did a great job in making a seriously impressive list of the most essential and remarkable films ever made, all of which have had a strong impact on the world of cinematography."
Bright Side website has shared that list with us. Movies 1-341 are: "Part 1. The most essential films in the history of world cinema" and movies 342-500 are: "Part 2. The very best Hollywood films." There are only 497 films on this list because there were three films in the original list that were mentioned twice and List Challenges allows you to put a film only once on a list.
