When one is making a top 300 movie list, how do you pick your # 1?
Do you pick "The Graduate" which you saw 7 times in the same theatre.
Do you pick "Star Wars" which was light years ahead of its time when you saw its special premiere?
Do you pick "Ballad of a Soldier" which you first saw 50 years after its release date? And then decided, it might be your favorite movie ever.
Do you pick "Animal House" which kept the packed theatre audience in stitches?
Or do you pick 1973's "Lost Horizon" that you saw with that special someone?
I picked The Godfather II which many consider to be the greatest movie of all time.
