Top 200 Japanese Films According to Kinema Junpo Readers - Page 3

There were a number of discrepancies between the various sources* I consulted, so this list is an aggregate of those two sources. However, this represents a different perspective to Japanese cinema from the critics, as a number of films ranked highly on the critics list rank much lower on the reader list.
*The sources I consulted were the recreations presented on Letterboxd (https://letterboxd.com/bobhoveyga/list/japanese-movies-all-time-best-200-kinejun/) and MUBI (https://mubi.com/lists/japanese-movies-all-time-best-200-kinejun-readers).
