What's English-bias? What's recency bias? These are the questions the writers at BuzzFeed should be asking themselves whenever they pull their heads out of the sand long enough to hit their 1000 word minimum requirement to justify the most absolutely repugnant list they call the greatest movies ever made (hint, one of the oldest is from 1972, wink).
I'm also not going to sit here and throw out some hoity-toity pretentious list of a bunch of crap no one has ever seen or would ever pretend to like (Breathless sucked, we all know it. And no, I'm not going to watch a housewife sit around chopping veggies and be bored all day either… looking at you Sight & Sound 2022).
Here are 10 movies that are great because they each match one or more of these criteria:
Original
Ingenious writing
Masterfully crafted
Incomparable to other films (though they will be copied)
Infinitely rewatchable
Emotionally filling
I liked it. Shut up.
Enjoy!
