1962 Critics' Poll, Sight and Sound Magazine
Yet another "Films I need to watch" list, this from the top twenty. I have not included the films I've already seen:
Ugetsu monogatari (Tales after the Rain) -- Kenji Mizoguchi, 1953.
Greed -- Erich von Stroheim
Ivan the Terrible (Ivan Groznyi) (parts I and II) -- Sergei Eisenstein
The Battleship Potemkin (Bronenosets Potyomkin) -- Sergei Eisenstein
La Terra trema (The Earth Trembles) -- Luchino Visconti
Zero for Conduct (Zéro de conduite) -- Jean Vigo
Hiroshima mon Amour -- Alain Resnais
Pather Panchali (The Song of the Road) -- Satyajit Ray
The Childhood of Maxim Gorky (Detstvo Gorkogo) -- Mark Donskoi
Ikiru -- Akira Kurosawa (this is playing next week locally)
Nazarín -- Luis Buñuel
Oktober -- Sergei Eisenstein
Here's the 2002 Top Ten List from the Directors -- excusing the films I've seen already.
Godfather II
Rashomon
Seven Samurai
Lots of Chaplin in the top twenty! My sister-in-law is not a Japanese cinema buff, so I am learning the films by myself. I did see "Floating Weeds" which was beautifully choreographed and acted. I must see "Tokyo Story" soon.

More 'Best American Films Lists'
I recently watched two highly esteemed classic films, both directed by Martin Scorsese, and both featuring Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Frank Vincent: Goodfellas and Raging Bull. It's taken me a long, long time to see these films. Eventually I do want to see all the 'excellent/very good' films.
For this list, I have yet to see:
Broken Blossoms
Greed
The Strong Man
The Crowd
The Wind
Scarface
HISTORY IS MADE AT NIGHT
STAGECOACH
YOUNG MR. LINCOLN
THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS
DETOUR
THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE
FORT APACHE
GUN CRAZY
ON THE WATERFRONT
THE SEARCHERS
A FACE IN THE CROWD
THE LAST PICTURE SHOW
MEAN STREETS
THE CONVERSATION
THE GODFATHER PART II
TAXI DRIVER
DAYS OF HEAVEN
ALL THAT JAZZ
DINER
RUMBLE FISH
STRANGER THAN PARADISE
AVALON
JFK
