If you can think of a any that should on this list, please leave your thoughts or the number of these films that you have in the comments. This list was created with the use of the times online’s Top 100 Films.
I’ve only seen 7 of those movies. Some I’ve sort of seen but can’t really remember much about them.
But I will no doubt put them on my classic movie list to watch.
I’ve seen 1 of those 20, but then again 17 of them were released before either of us were born.
That is the thing, these films are classics. There are lots of films that I have seen that were made before I was born that I have seen. Thing is I feel like I am missing something out by not seeing as so many shows like Family Guy talk about films like this. I am getting around to seeing all of them.
