1. Casablanca (1942)
2. The Apartment (1960)
3. North by Northwest (1959)
4. Le Million (1931)
5. Elevator to the Gallows (1958)
6. Rome, Open City (1945)
7. Monsieur Hulot's Holiday (1953)
8. How to Marry a Millionaire (1953)
9. To Catch a Thief (1955)
10. The Third Man (1949)
A case for Casablanca: Humphrey Bogart has given us, Rick Blaine ... the greatest antihero in cinema. It's also one of the most delightfully quotable films ever created. What a bittersweet romance with the brilliant chemistry between Humphrey Bogart's Rick and Ingrid Bergman's Ilsa Lund.

2.) 12 Angry Men
3.) Psycho
4.) Gaslight
5.) Invasion of the Body Snatchers
6.) Diabolique
7.) Night of the Living Dead
8.) Gone with the Wind
9.) Singin' in the Rain
10.) Seven Samurai
Takashi Shimura gives such an incredible performance, his facial expressions matched with the dreary tone made it impossible not to feel for him. The story is something we can all relate to in some way or another and it is told so well that we are left with a great deal to contemplate after the credits roll.

Quote: "Most of these movies have been my favorite classic movie at one time or another, but Lawrence of Arabia (1962) has probably held the distinction for me the longest. As with most of David Lean's masterpieces, it excels in just about every way one can measure a film and is still as impressive some fifty years later. The almost four hour epic is so well-made, one oddly doesn't want it to ever end."
