Time will start around 4:30 PM EST, if that's good by everyone. I'm still accepting ballots through tomorrow, by the way.

Hope the right Kubrick is at the top, and that Leone gets two in the top five.

Here are our tiebreaking procedures in case of films having the same number of points:
1. Number of ballots the film appeared on 2. Highest placement on a ballot 3. Number of ballots that gave that highest placement
This left us with one tie that could not possibly be broken no matter how many tiebreakers were used, as the two films had the exact same rankings on each ballot they appeared on.

Hour of the Wolf. One of the criminally unappreciated great Bergman's  Glad it made it.

Hour of the Wolf. One of the criminally unappreciated great Bergman's  Glad it made it. I haven't seen it, but Bergman seems like he'd be good at doing a straight-up horror film. He did a pretty bang-up comedy with Smiles of a Summer Night, and I'd have liked to see him do more out of his comfort zone.

I didn’t vote for it but I’m so glad to see The Miracle Worker on this list! It just missed my ballot, IIRC. Duke and Bancroft are one of the finest duos in cinematic history.

Jules & Jim and Cherbourg are too fucking low! Cherbourg is the saddest love song you've ever heard, stretched out over an entire movie's length.
