Top 100 movies

Over at the Filmspotting message boards (and for the love of mike, if any of you reading this still haven't gone over there, do yourself the favour) the community is compiling its top 100 movies list for the second year in a row. Last year the event was a huge success (complete with chat room banter!) and this year promises to be even bigger. Any members who wished to submit a list of their 100 favourite/best films were invited to do so. Yours truly jumped at the opportunity, as did over 40 other people, and here is my list of my 100 favourite films. Don't mind the dividing lines, they merely seperated the point allocation for calculating Filmspotting master list:
