Oh I think there are a few films on that same level but not many and none better.

Even a top-10 is too constricting. I would have a rough time between my number 10 and my number 11. Haha.

TexasAg1969

Lawrence of Arabia has to be up in that top 10 somewhere. One of my top 5 anyway.

I agree on Godfather I & II, but not III. It did not come close to the first two.

And lessor known is Out of Africa. I just loved the panoramic scenes and the true story behind it. Much was filmed on the original farm.

The 10 Commandments )Charlton Heston) is up there for me as well as Stanley Kubrick's 2001:A Space Oddessey

I believe 2001 is a landmark but I don't think it stands the test of time as well as some others.

It's one of those movies that requires a lot of inner interpretation I suppose... Not everyone gets it... For me it was a deep , stark look into humanity... Where we began.. Where we might end up...
