BFI Results

The British film institute has voted on the sight
and sound poll which is taken every ten years.
This involved 800 film critics and experts.

The results for the top ten films are as follows:
1. Vertigo (1958) ( I have seen this and though it
was OK, but it would not be in
my top 10.)
2. Citizen Kane (1941)( which has held top position
since voting began in 1952!!!)
(I have never seen this film but
I do know that Rosebud came
from this film.)
3. Tokyo Story (1953) (Never heard of this)
4. La Regle Du Jeu (Rules of the Game) (19390 (Never
heard of this.)
5. Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans. (1929)(Never heard
of this.)
6. 2001: A Space Odyssey. (1968) (Saw this couln't
understand it and no way would it
be in my top 10 films.)
7. The Searchers.(1956) (With John Wayne considered to
be the greatest western ever.)I
don't like westerns so wouldn't
watch this! I have never heard of
it nor would I include it in my
list.)
8. Man With A Movie Camera. (1929) ( A B&W silent film
about daily life in Russia. (All
I can say about this choice is just
how relevent would this be TODAY??)
(Never heard of it and wouldn't
watch it if I did know about it.
Nor include it in my list)
9. The Passion of Joan of Arc. (1928) (A B&W silent
film about the trial of this French
heroine.) Once again how good is
this film in today's tech age??)
(Once again wouldn't watch this.)
10. 8.1/2 (1963) (A B&W film about a blocked fim maker.)
(Have heard of this film and never
wanted to see it then and I still
don't. Wouldn't be in my picks.)
