I'm not sure who compiled this list either, but any one that includes Donnie Darko, even if it only made it in at #100 ... Of they ones you've missed, If I may make a recommendation, I would start with To Kill a Mockingbird .. it's just a charming American story

You haven't seen Casablanca???

I am shocked and distressed. You must come to my house and watch it immediately.

I've done this on my blog too. Lists are fun!

I only have 27. Pretty sad for a "movie fan" like me.

I consol myself with the fact that I've watched almost all of the cheesy sports movies and rom coms out there. It makes me able to sleep better at night. Go Casablanca! I am also about to read To Kill a Mockingbird. Got to read it first I say.
