A Century's Worth of Favorites.

It's 2010, see? How cool is that? If you take 2010 and subtract 1910, what do you get? That's right, kiddos-- one hundred years, aka a century's worth of movies for me (or you, or that guy) to enjoy and discuss.

I know, I know..."What about The Great Train Robbery, made in 1903?" Or, "What about The Horse in Motion, everyone's favorite flicker from 1878??" No thanks. I'm not including those because 1) I haven't seen them, and 2) I have a hunch they wouldn't be my favorites.

So here we are, back at the start. Sergio Leone and the Infield Fly Rule has created a list --this list-- of favorite films from the past 100 years. Being the idea-thief that I am, I thought it'd be fun to try a list of my own. And you know what?-- it was. :)
