Film Illiterate, wherein the proprietor records movies seen, and sporadic progress through assorted lists of the "best". Originally started after regretfully renting something forgettable for the third time. I've forgotten what, but never again! A tedious endeavour since 2005. Hello. 🙂
A fun, eclectic top 100. There's commentary on the films chosen at the list's official site.
This list is ranked and is shown in descending order.
