About 20 years ago I tried to rank films numerically, I got the first five, then started to have many contenders for each number. I decided to rank them by placing them in groups of 10, then decide the individual positions within each group of ten. The 20’s had 50 films, the 30’s had 70 films , the 50’s had 120 films….. well, you see my problem
The Best I can do is name my favorite film and best film today.
Well today my favorite film is the Heiress. My pick for best film is Wizard of Oz. Layered nuanced story, beautiful art work and costumes, stellar performances no false notes anywhere.
Tomorrow? Favorite ins the Band wagon. Best is Best years of our lives.
I know that when I think of The Heiress, my mind says, "Oh yes, that almost perfect movie that Aaron Copland scored."
