The Film List

Here are all films I'll be going through on my quest to acquaint myself with all the great and important movies I've never seen. I compiled this list myself, basing it mostly off entries from John Frazier's Most Influential Films of All Time and a few other selections from the AFI 100 list.  I'll be updating this list with links to my reviews as I watch each film.
