60 Most Important Movies to Cinema's History

Wupps! Skipped a day there, had something going on yesterday, my bad. Anyone who's seen the earlier lists I posted, know the drill here these are my picks of essential films that changed the course of movie history, the first 60 off the top of my head. Am putting together a much larger movie list, one set of 10 items at a time. Tomorrow there will be 10 more, unless I have something else going on. Thanks...
