A director-centric assortment is a person way to go. To compliment our variety of Guilty Pleasures, we may have had a different sidebar known as Guilty Conscience-a contingent of films from developing countries and other underrepresented regions and ethnicities. I managed to get nine of these into subsidiary sections: The Rules of the Game and Awara in Great Performances, Jules and Jim in Soundtracks, Gone With the Wind and School Girl in Guilty Pleasures, some of the animated and experimental movies in Selected Short Subjects. A scanning of both of those lists exhibits that Schickel and Corliss agreed on 31 movies that acquired into the holy hundred: Sherlock Jr., Sunrise, City Lights, King Kong, Bride of Frankenstein, His Girl Friday, Pinocchio, The Lady Eve, Citizen Kane, Casablanca, Double Indemnity, Children of Paradise, Detour, White Heat, Kind Hearts and Coronets, A Streetcar Named Desire, Singin’ in the Rain, Ikiru, Ugetsu, Smiles of a Summer Night, Sweet Smell of Success, Yojimbo, The Manchurian Candidate, 8-1/2, Persona, The Godfather and The Godfather Part II, Aguirre the Wrath of God, Chinatown, Taxi Driver, E.T. And if you’re wondering why Robert Bresson’s Mouchette (naturally a Corliss choice) seems on the ultimate listing but not on my initial 1, the remedy is: the first time all around, I forgot!
