My Top 300 Favourite Films
300 titles |
Public
An honest list of my 300 favourite films, in order. I stress the word 'favourite'. This list is compiled based on how much I personally enjoy the films. It is not a 'best films of all time' list, though many of them I would consider to be worthy contenders.
When compiling a 'favourite' films list, I tend to find people are often too conscious that the list is to be presented or shown to others, which distorts the truth and results in a compilation designed to impress or disguise actual preference.
This list does no such thing, and contains guilty pleasures, childhood favourites, overlooked obscurities, world cinema greats, classics and a number of films that shout "quite frankly, dear, I don't give a damn!". After about 6 years of this list's existence, I have abandoned my rule of having to have seen the film at least twice, and have added an additional 150 titles to form a more comprehensive, varied collection of the films I adore.
