I won't bother. Looking at the rankings up to #67 is comment enough. I haven't looked any further up.

Perfect, thanks Norm.

It's just that it messes up the top 10.

I'm looking forward to your comments after the entire thing is posted though 😜

Norman, as mad as the world is, I'm going to have to ask you to delete your post in the list thread 🤣

Will continue after it's deleted.

Jonas Mekas made the list and West Side Story didn't?

I love BEA.

sorry if it's not too late, what's your call for Scenes from Under Childhood? Do we treat the 4 parts as one anthology film (which would make it a 70s release?) or looking at them individually?

The fourth part was released in 1970, so I'm not 100% sure. Either way, even if you put it on your list, it wouldn't make the final cut anyway. It doesn't have any other votes.

Sounds interesting to check out though 😄

Anyway, the list will be starting soon 😁

The suspense is killing me. The 60s are so hard. There was just so much quality of all genres from all over the place.

On the off chance I don't get to a computer to make a proper list before the time, sorry if this is a pain but Hayden do you think you could grab my horribly outdated list on my letterboxd and just kinda insert Le Jette at #3 and Scorpio Rising at like 30? (It doesn't currently have shorts on it but iirc you said you'd allow ones over a certain length)

Yeah, that's fine 😄 I'll just knock off your #99 & #100. Shouldn't be an issue. I remember looking at it a while back, it's a great list. Also, If you didn't say it was outdated, no one would notice. 🤣 Don't worry.
