I still haven't seen Lawrence of Arabia, so my list isn't perfect, but here's my top ten as of now:
00: Wings of Desire
01: Africa Parting / Alice's Attic
02: The Seventh Seal
03: Spirited Away
04: The Sacrifice
05: The Spirit of the Beehive
06: Fantastic Planet
07: Dreams
08: The Tale of Princess Kaguya
09: The Old Man and the Sea
10: The Three Colors Trilogy
*edit: i am such a cheater. that's definitely 14 films, and i tried to roll with it like it was ten. i'm a sham, guys. a hack. a fraud. a fool. a homeschooler.
**edit: and for what it's worth, bladerunner belongs on this list somewhere, though i'd hate to bump the three colors off the edge. on a rainy day, the secret garden would worm its way in as well.
***edit: one more edit for good measure. the best things come in threes. _________________ follow me on the bandcamp.
