came to the thread late, but wanted to say that the 10 minutes or so of ‘Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite’ at the end of 2001 is one of the greatest sequences in any film ever

I remember reading an interview with Wong Kar Wai where he mentioned that Vertigo was a film that was on his mind when he made In the Mood for Love. He compared the Tony Leung character with Jimmy Stewart, making the point that they both have faces we really like, so we want to overlook how weird and obsessive they are

Hope we'll get to see the full results. Of my favourite directors who missed the cut, I'd be curious to see how Varda's films ended up. Though I probably didn't help her chances by putting The Gleaners and I in my top 25 instead of Cleo or Vagabond.

since cinema began women directors have never been given 1/100th of the resources or opportunities as men directors, so that was bound to be reflected in a list of the top 100 films.

Yeah I get that, still pretty striking though! Not that ILX is different from anyone else, pretty sure just about all top 100 lists would be 98% men.

really good list and a lot I haven't seen in the unranked section. I thought The Brood was creepy and horrible though. I guess I don't like a lot of Cronenberg, the body horror is just too gothic and depressing

Nice to see Goodbye, Dragon Inn so high on another list. I love that movie so much that I'm almost afraid to watch it again because I don't know if it will register the same way.

Haha, no idea how that ended up in your column, but I figured out where it went missing from: Dan S.

If I did it over again i'd nominate more than one film (Children of Men), and vote for La Jétee high up on the list. PlayTime probably woulda found its way in there—I only saw it after voting.
I'd spent a lot of time since the first lockdown re-watching movies from my high school Fiction & Film class, and the more embarrassing parts of my list reflects that.

I'm surprised Days of Heaven was the one Malick, I would have expected Badlands or Thin Red Line before that. (Badlands for me thx.)
