Movies Every Film Buff Has to Watch (2023 Update)

There are a lot of movies I still haven't seen, but these are the movies that are my absolute favourites so far. Whether it be the way the movie was made, the acting performances, the stories that were told or the life lessons that they teach, these are the movies that have inspired me the most. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
This is an updated version of a list I made a year ago with movies that I have watched throughout 2023.
