Movie History - The 100 Greatest Movies of the 20th Century

dirks-greatest-560.JPGYes, you read that right! It's time to attempt the (seemingly) impossible: Compiling a list of the most transcendent works committed to film in the past century. Is there anything more subjective than coming up with a list of the 100 greatest movies of all time? The artistic greatness of movies (and other works of art) can never be scientifically rated or quantified, though critics, reviewers, and fans certainly do their best -- and if you follow their musings, you'll find that there are certain movies that appear on all-time best lists again and again. I've come up with my own list of picks that have left an indelible mark upon our lives and reflect the defining moments of the last 100 years -- movies that give us pieces of time we can never forget. The only criteria? That they be English-language, theatrically-distributed, narrative feature films. As always, your criticism (and accolades!) are most welcome.
