	100 Greatest American Movies by the AFI
		The top ten included movies from every decade, from the 1930s to the 1990s, with the exception of the 1980s.
		More than half of the films (56) were made between 1950 and 1979, thereby ignoring cinema's early years and some of the modern era.
		The Godfather, Part II (1974) (at #32) was the only sequel represented on the list, although it could be argued that The Silence of the Lambs (1991) (at #65) was a sequel to Manhunter (1986).

	Topica Email List Directory
		From roughly the early 1970s onwards, a recurring theme in science fiction cinema, particularly of the post-apocalyptic or catastrophic model, was the depletion of the Earth's ozone layer, through pollution or scientific misadventure, and its effects on the planet's climate and life-forms.
		This part of the movie actually employs some inventive camera angles and movements as well as imaginative lighting, and features a genuinely startling jump cut when the woman's scream is replaced by the feedback from a showband's amplifier in the local pub.
		Of course when The Strange World of Planet X appeared at the end of the 1950s, the scenes featuring the oversized life-forms would have been more powerful, especially for those with phobias about insects, and it is important to be sympathetic to the technical standards from that period.

	Best Movies 2002: Ron Weiskind's Picks
		As usual, my list of the year's best movies (and those of colleagues Barry Paris and Barbara Vancheri) includes films that opened in Pittsburgh this year and some that will arrive in January but are eligible for this year's Academy Awards race.
		The movie has a sexuality to it that is alternately shocking and humorous, but the emotions run deep both in the way the men feel about their women and in how they feel about each other.
		Todd Haynes' remarkable movie is not only set in the 1950s, but also looks like it could have been made in that era, with its lush color photography and dramatic Elmer Bernstein score.

		But Kieslowski has crafted a beautiful movie, about a woman (Juliette Binoche) whose family is killed in an accident and her attempt to isolate herself from the world after that.
		Directed by Ron Shelton (of Bull Durham fame), the movie takes place during the turbulent days in 1992 just prior to the acquittal of four white police officers for the beating of Rodney King, and the subsequent race riots.

	Wesley Morris: The year in movies - The Boston Globe
		This boxing film is his apotheosis, the kind of movie only a 75-year-old can make: It wants to prove nothing, so its ancient story takes on new life as a late chapter in Eastwood's deepening study of his own screen persona.
		This tale, set in the 1950s, about the eponymous London charwoman who performs abortions in her spare time, is his most powerful since ''Naked." It's a deftly constructed tour de force of social reconstruction: You can feel the morality of the period breathing down every character's neck.
		The decaying Taipei movie palace at the center of Tsai Ming-liang's filmgoing ballad is a haunted house, spooked by the millions of images that have floated from its projection booth and enlivened by the peculiar viewing habits of its patrons.

	[No title]
		The movie's climax, as Reynolds flees from a theater while Kelly shouts out "Stop that girl!" and tells everyone who she is, and that he loves her, is one of those bravura romantic scenes that make you tingle no matter how often you see it.
		The movie stars sweet-faced Renee Zellweger as Roxie Hart, who kills her lover and convinces her husband to pay for her defense; and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Velma Kelly, who broke up her vaudeville sister act by murdering her husband and her sister while they were engaged in a sport not licensed for in-laws.
		The cub's birth is announced in the opening sequence of the movie, called "The Circle of Life," which is an evocative collaboration of music and animation to show all of the animals of the African veld gathering to hail their future king.

		The tone of science fiction films is often a guide to the tone of the times the film was made: other worlds and species are viewed in turn as wonderful, terrifying, threatening, incomprehensible, and childishly benign.
		The following list of science fiction films include a number that are notable and a large number that are considered mediocre, including quite a few that have been listed among the worst movies ever made, or have won one or more Golden Raspberry Awards.

		Not to try to answer the unanswerable question of which is the best, but rather to poll the opinions of those involved in British film, who have seen more movies than most, for an indication of where their professional tastes lie, what their favourites are.
		Of course there may be films that are not on this list which one could argue passionately merit a place.
		The list is intended, and offered, as a starting-point for any discussion, rather than as an end to one.

	1950s Monster Movies on DVD
		This list began as a thread on Mobius Home Video Forum in which I innocently posted a list of my collection of 50s SF and horror films on DVD, and asked if there were any lists online which would help me determine which titles I was missing.
		No one knew of such a list, but everyone knew some titles I was missing, and a number of people also posted lists of 50s SF/Horror titles which are not yet on DVD.
		The list was built from titles suggested by Dave Aulph, John Black, David Scott Butner, Steve Guariento, Chas Lindsay, Jay MacIntyre, Robert Richardson, Nikos D Vassiliou, and Matt Wyatt.

	USCCB - (Film and Broadcasting) - Ten Best List for the Year 1996
		Big Night -- Two Italian immigrants in the 1950s -- a perfectionist chef (Tony Shalhoub) and his more pragmatic brother (Stanley Tucci) -- risk bankrupcy by putting on a lavish banquet for celebrity Louis Prima in hopes the resulting publicity will attract business to their restaurant.
		As co-directed by Tucci and Campbell Scott, the bittersweet story is a warmhearted celebration of family, community and the fragile relationships that give life its flavor.
		Directed by Charles Matthau, the result is a lovely little movie re-creating the charms of a past era without sentimentalizing its account of the boy's encounters with the adult world and odd behavior of his quirky elders (including retired judge Walter Matthau, swindler Jack Lemmon, servant Nell Carter and barber Roddy McDowall).

	Book Review: Doctors in the Movies \| Your Health Connection
		During this period, the 1930s to the 1950s, public opinion polls ranked physicians on a par with or better than Supreme Court justices.
		Dans' collection of essays examines 75 movies (many of which should be familiar to readers), which are grouped into five thematic categories.
		These glitches aside, Doctors in the Movies is a valuable contribution to the field of medicine and film -- and it's fun to read as well.

		Still a lovely list, although it could be strongly argued that there should be two lists, the pre-blockbuster era and blockbuster era films.
		The disaster movie binge tried to accomplish this death, but they were still too tied to the conventions of studio control...or maybe they just sucked.
		Movies are like the sense of smell--hard-wired directly into the most primitive and emotional parts of the brain itself.

		Movies have been around for over 100 years now.
		What many parents fail to realize is that the stratification of the movie audience happened only in the 1950s and 1960s when producers realized the vast potential of the previous untapped teenage market.
		Yes, there are a few, very few, recent films suitable for families, but so many of those made for children today have language, character traits, behavior, and plots that I, as a parent, don’t particularly believe my children need to see, and emulate.

	War and War-Era Movies: Media Resources Center UCB
		It is a study of a prisoner of war camp and the disillusionment of captors and prisoners alike.
		One of the greatest war movies of all time, the story follows one squad of Marines through the bloody assaults on the Solomon Islands during the opening stages of the war in the South Pacific.
		Set in the early 1950s when the US military presence was predominant in Korea, the film depicts the life of an older generation from a child's perspective.

	Commentaries: The Cream of the Crop - Christianity Today Movies
		The "redeeming" list speaks for itself—films that told a story of redemption (something or somebody bad turned good, an uplifting story that celebrates truth, goodness and/or biblical values, etc.).
		Our Critics' Choice list, on the other hand, consists of the 10 films that our panel believes were the most excellent films of 2004, whether they carried a "redeeming" message or not.
		In some ways this movie is profoundly unsatisfying; I walked out of the theater wanting to follow the story a little longer, to know more.

		The movies were picked from a list of 400 nominees put together by the AFI.
		The 1950s was the most represented decade in the top 100, with 20 films, but the best year was 1939, with five films.

	Movies into Film
		If dumb American movie critics—who expect a film to be one thing and only thing only, not to mix too many disparate or contrasting ingredients together—have had such consternation over the blending of light and dark in a film as harmless as Lemony Snicket, I doubt that they would rally behind Vuillet’s maverick debut.
		I wept during the dog-walking montage that quickly chases Weber’s bizarre pronouncement, a montage scored to Blossom Dearie’s 1950s Verve recording of “Manhattan.” And the woman seated to my left, with whom I’d been trading sarcastic ripostes before the lights went down, noticed that I was sobbing.
		Except perhaps for this: several of my choices for the cinema’s most agonizing experiences this year past may be found in prominent abundance on the 10 “best” lists of the taste-impoverished, bought-off, mainstream daily and weekly reviewers.
