Movies: A User's Guide to the Best of All Time - Page 14

This is my comprehensive list of what I consider to be the best movies ever made. Most of these movies are ones that I would consider any true film-lover or cinephile to have watched; however, we each have our own tastes. This list is a compilation of four lists I have already made, which I've attached the links to below. Just a couple of things. Firstly, classic movies are probably my favourite; however, there are much fewer in this list than modern movies, but only because of the increased volume of film production - not a preference. Finally, the only change to the lists already published is to remove some films from my 1980s-90s list I didn't think appropriate for this list. Enjoy!
