	100 Greatest American Movies by the AFI
		The 1950s was the most represented decade on the list, with 20 films.
		And 70 of the films on the list were from 1950 and after.
		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).

		The rise of European cinema was interrupted by the breakout of World War I while the film industry in United States flourished with the rise of Hollywood.

	Chicago Reader Blogs: On Film
		But villainx, I think the difference is that Jonathan's lists more readily admit their subjectivity ("favorite films"), whereas th AFI list, or the Schrader list (for a more recent example), or an descriptor like "the best year for film" suggests an air of "academic" inquiry, a (perhaps subconcious) attempt to seem objective.
		Lists tend to be very subjective (as to the personality and experience of their creator) and are insightful for their inclusions as well as omissions.
		Rosenbaum makes his lists, he is quite aware of their subjectivity and how much he has yet to see (when talking about the great Japanese directors, he confesses that he has yet to experience a Naruse film).

	Genre and the Video Game
		The idea of categorization by genre, and the notion that there are certain conventions present in each genre, has been used in the study of literature and film and has proven to be a useful way of looking at both.
		The idea of genre has not been without difficulties, such as the defining of what exactly constitutes a genre, overlaps between genres, and the fact that genres are always in flux as long as new works are being produced.
		Several genres could easily be subdivided into subgenres, which are themselves even more fluid and ever-changing than genres, and their inclusion would more than double the present length of the list.

	Cinematic genre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A "genre" generally refers to films that share similarities in the narrative elements from which they are constructed.
		Many historians debate whether film noir truly is a genre rather than a style of film-making often emulated in the period's heyday.
		John Truby, Hollywood story consultant states that "...you have to know how to transcend the forms [genres] so you can give the audience a sense of originality and surprise."[1] Some screenwriters use genre as a means of determining what kind of plot or content to put into a screenplay.

		The list consists of definitions and descriptions of these various styles of music, but also gives a couple of seminal tracks from each style.
		In many ways, EBM, powernoize, and other genres listed here do have a base in industrial (the use of machine sounds, factory noises, and whirring synths that evoke these cold, mechanical elements hearkens to early experimental industrial), they are only peripherally related to industrial music as it was originally conceived.
		The introduction and much of the genre list is one lasting legacy of the late, great Club Luminal in San Diego, California.

		To date, I have yet to see a number of prominent films from 2004, so this list is still very much a work-in-progress.
		This is actually my list of the best films of the 2000s decade so far, not the 1980s.
		I still have yet to see some of the best-reviewed (or cynics might say over-hyped) films of the year, but 2006 was quite a good year, particularly with the masterpiece "Children of Men" emerging.

	Women Film Journalists Pick Their Own Top 100 List - Cinematical
		But consider that many of the films of the AFI's list were not initially critical or box office successes, and that the "art" was only appreciated later, sometimes decades after their releases.
		In fifty, maybe just twenty years, the AFI list might be considered a relic-- from the bygone days of the American domination of film created out of a long-dead all-male club-- certainly worthy of study in from academic perspective, but lacking contemporary relevance.

	Spout - We're talkin' Leisure Arts Movies

		Cinematic is a fifteen song, 64 minute CD that doesn't outstay its welcome, doesn't lose the plot towards the middle of the second half and -believe it or not-leaves you with the feeling at the end that you want to hear the whole damn thing over again.
		Cinematic in scope, sound and lyrical content, this album is everything you'd expect from a cultured cult artist such as Borland.
		Everybody is a star, but Borland's cinematic life is well worth watching.

	Polish Literature in English Translation
		My goal in creating this website is to provide as comprehensive a list as possible of works that are currently available through the Web and that are or that until recently have been in print in book format.
		Along with the prose fiction, playscripts, and poems that represent the three primary genres of writing that have tended to be identified with "literature" over the past two centuries, I've included letters, diaries, and personal essays, both by people with an established literary reputation and by those who didn't necessarily intend their writing for publication.
		At this point, I've decided to restrict the list to authors who were born in what was considered Polish national or cultural territory at the time of their birth AND who--except for pre-17th century authors writing in Latin--wrote at least some of their works in the Polish language.
