Whoops, on my list I somehow had To Be or Not to Be listed under the year 1947 instead of 1942, so I replaced it with Black Narcissus. Then I also had Metropolis under 1926 instead of 1927 and Passion of Joan of Arc 1927 instead of 1928. Once I fixed these, this knocked out The Crowd and opened the door to add F.W. Murnau's Faust for 1926.

Mercury wrote:

Satyajit Ray (6 no. 1s), Richard Linklater (4), Billy Wilder (4), Steven Spielberg (4) are all dominant. But especially Satyajit Ray - the GOAT.

Hadn't done this for my list yet, I'm not surprised with the outcome though.

Godard - 5
Chaplin - 5
Kubrick - 3

And about 6 or 7 other directors with 2 on my list.

My current pick for 2017 is I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore, and although it's awesome, it's more or less a placeholder at this point. So many films to look forward to this year...

Also, sidenote, gotta check out Irma La Douce. It's been on my 'to watch' list for too long.

You must have caught it on my letterboxd then. I don't think I've posted that here yet. I'm not entirely confident with it yet... it was kinda just whipped up. At this point, it's not exactly the most interesting of lists.

Regardless, here it is: https://letterboxd.com/tepitome/list/my-favourite-film-from-every-year-1919-present/

There's still a small handful of ties that I'm trying to eliminate. 2013 is a damn hard year to only pick one film. Under The Skin/Her/Blue Is The Warmest Colour are a pretty strong top spot tie for me.

On a side note, I'm hoping you take part in our all-time list AfterHours 😄 Always interesting picks.
