Given the strange state that film criticism is in, it can be increasingly challenging to find good recommendations on what to watch. Steaming services are often not curated, and so it can be hard to distinguish between what is truly great and what is simply recommended by an algorithmic formula. While Rotten Tomatoes is a flawed system that doesn't offer constructive insights, the British Film Institute is a great network that helps support filmmakers by shining a spotlight on their work.
While it often helps to promote up-and-coming filmmakers by screening independent films, The British Film Institute has unparalleled knowledge of the works of classic cinema. Any aspiring cinephile who wants to know about more film history than just superhero movies owes it to themselves to check out the BFI's list of "the 100 greatest British films ever made." Here are the ten best movies recommended by the British Film Institute.
