100 movies, 2 women directors, one of which is a co-credit for an 18-minute short!

Zelda Zonk, Friday, 5 November 2021 01:59 (four years ago)

House is one of the most purely entertaining movies ever made.

Chris L, Friday, 5 November 2021 02:05 (four years ago)

xp there were three! Deren, Chytilová and Akerman, although that's still not enough

I also voted for Martel, Varda, Reichardt, Dash, Livingston, Loden, Hausner, S. Coppola, Ade, Sciamma

Dan S, Friday, 5 November 2021 02:10 (four years ago)

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.

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Friday, 5 November 2021 02:15 (four years ago)

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.

Zelda Zonk, Friday, 5 November 2021 02:25 (four years ago)

Milm & Foovies (Eric H.), Friday, 5 November 2021 02:34 (four years ago)

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

Dan S, Friday, 5 November 2021 02:43 (four years ago)

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.

a man often referred to in the news media as the Duke of Saxony (tipsy mothra), Friday, 5 November 2021 02:44 (four years ago)

I loved it too. I laugh when I think about my friend's reaction to it when I saw it with him.

I think The Exterminating Angel would have been the other Buñuel I would have voted for

Dan S, Friday, 5 November 2021 02:48 (four years ago)

(xposts) No problem--I think the highest-ranking out the 10 was Wendy and Lucy in the 800s.

clemenza, Friday, 5 November 2021 02:52 (four years ago)

Something that may have affected the Top 100, though, is you've got me down for 20 Au hasard Balthazar points--assume those points belong to whoever's next to me on the spreadsheet.

clemenza, Friday, 5 November 2021 02:55 (four years ago)

let it go

Dan S, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:01 (four years ago)

As I've made very clear in this poll and elsewhere, the results of these polls are of paramount importance. I'm going to brood on this for months.

davey, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:05 (four years ago)

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

Milm & Foovies (Eric H.), Friday, 5 November 2021 03:11 (four years ago)

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.

davey, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:16 (four years ago)

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.)

another good list. A lot of these I haven't seen. can't find any way to watch Possession right now

21. Southland Tales (Richard Kelly, 2006)
22. Kiki's Delivery Service (Hayao Miyazaki, 1989)

both great

Dan S, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:30 (four years ago)

Come over! I have a gorgeous copy.

Kevin John Bozelka, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:32 (four years ago)

I didn't vote, but I had a got of enjoyment from the unveiling and the discussions that ensued. No doubt I'll check out some of the ones I have not yet seen and may never have known about without this poll thread.

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Friday, 5 November 2021 03:33 (four years ago)

xp Hey, thank you Dan, likewise! I'm thankful for every single person here's participation—but of course for Eric most of all: I can't thank you enough for all you did to make this happen. This chance to reflect on what movies I really value, and why I do, has truly been a source of meaning and insight.

davey, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:34 (four years ago)

xpost Aimless, check out Climax which Eric hyped at the bottom of his chronological list.

Kevin John Bozelka, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:34 (four years ago)

I see a few other fans of Paris is Burning... And man I have got to track down Possession somehow.

Glad to have the full results. I'm also really appreciating/anticipating all the films this continues to add to my watch-list.

davey, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:38 (four years ago)

Should be a spankin' new Blu/4K Possession out next year from some label.

Precious, Grace, Hill & Beard LTD. (C. Grisso/McCain), Friday, 5 November 2021 03:50 (four years ago)

right now thinking about the films from this list that I haven’t yet seen, including The Night of the Hunter, The Third Man, The Green Ray, Stop Making Sense, Possession, The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp, The Man who Shot Liberty Valance, Daisies, California Split, Celine and Julie Go boating

I know, glaring omissions

Dan S, Friday, 5 November 2021 03:59 (four years ago)

I know, glaring omissions

Only if your life revolves around watching movies. There are many other studies, hobbies, and activities equally worthy of our time as watching films. For example, I watch about 40 films a year, but I read about 50 books a year. The reading takes a good amount of time away from when I could be watching films, because reading a book takes much longer than 2 hours. I do not regret this choice one bit. Films comprise a much more restricted universe than books, which have been around in some form for about 2500 years now and personally I get more out of them.

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Friday, 5 November 2021 04:08 (four years ago)

Oh wow! WmC also had the Gleaners and I in the top 25 - nice.

Love all those pre-code Barbara Stanwyck movies from j.lu's list: The Miracle Woman, Baby Face, Night Nurse

j.lu and I each had different Pabst/Louise Brooks movies in the low 20s. If all three Pabst/Brooks voters had rallied around the same film... that film still wouldn't have had a chance, I don't think.

Another favourite director of mine with a poor showing (I mentioned him way upthread): Maurice Pialat. Three films got one vote each, two of which were from me.

I had a notion to watch those films from the top 100 that I haven't seen before... Of those, I would probably most look forward to Mirror, and least to Mad Max and Goodfellas.

I like this list, though. Of the 85 or so I've seen, the only one I didn't care for at all was The Wicker Man.

reading does take a lot of time away from watching films, and I'm often so annoyed by the films I've chosen to watch, for example today Last Tango in Paris - really? I've been in a book club now for 27 years and it has been very rewarding

Interesting (to me) that some of us speculated No County for Old Men for the top 20 and it didn’t crack the top 250.

I must insist everyone who hasn’t seen House add it to their catch-up list since it was in the top 100 on raw results.

You really don't need to see Barb and Star in the cinema.

If only we'd had the chance!

Going back up to wondering about Casablanca yeah someone mentioned and I latched on to thinking this American classic would make it. Swapping it for Night of the Hunter is fine whatever. Another American classic!

Thanks for running it, Eric.
