    • Lawrence Of Arabia (1962) Directed by: David Lean. Starring: Peter O'Toole, Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn, Jack Hawkins, Omar Sharif. Strip away its scale and grandeur and Lawrence Of Arabia seems to be the kind of rags-to-riches tale that's two-a-shilling in cinema: an ordinary man shaking off mediocrity to answer the call of greatness.
    • Monty Python's Life Of Brian (1979) Directed by: Terry Jones. Starring: Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam.
    • The Red Shoes (1948) Directed by: Michael Powell, Emeric Pressburger. Starring: Moira Shearer, Anton Walbrook, Marius Goring. There's a reason why most reviews of Black Swan harked back to this post-War Powell and Pressburger classic: this is the definitive ballet-dancer-finds-life-clashing-with-art film.
    • Don't Look Now (1973) Directed by: Nicolas Roeg. Starring: Julie Christie, Donald Sutherland. Featuring the most famous dwarf this side of Thorin Oakenshield, deeply poignant turns from Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie, and that famous did-they-didn't-they sex scene (they didn't), Nic Roeg's great masterpiece has slowly seeped into British filmmaking lore.
  5. The 1960s head the list with 26 films of merit for the decade. The most represented years, with four films each, are 1949, 1963, and 1996. The earliest film selected was The 39 Steps (1935), and only two other 1930s films made the list.
