It IS the Greatest Film Ever Made!

If we're talking about Hollywood cinema, it's Gone with the Wind. It's got everything. And a good argument can be made for The Godfather 1.

The Wizard of Oz should be on your list. And Singin' in the Rain.

I can't take seriously that anyone would think that these are among the greatest films ever made

The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

The Lord of the Rings Triology (2001-2003)

I'd say Shadow of a Doubt is the better Hitchcock film. I'd even put North by Northwest and Psycho ahead of Vertigo, but critics love it. As far as greatest film ever, I'd say Chinatown.

I'll choose GWTW for sensitive handling of subject matter, cinematography, casting, script, direction, nostalgia, scope, authenticity...

But it's sad I have to go back 86 years.
