One hundred films. Ranked by joy, not quality. The top 40 require five or more viewings to qualify — you can't accidentally love something that many times.
This list is re-evaluated every 6 months and while informed by quantified data points, finalized by gut and passion.

Films knocking on the door. Some are strong candidates to move inside the top 100 at the next reassessment. Others need a rewatch to confirm their place. A few are here on the strength of memory alone, with no Letterboxd data to back them up yet.
One film per year, every year since 1970. No runners-up, no ties. Just the pick.
