What is the top of the best films, knows, perhaps, every modern person. Such ratings often arise because of the mass production of the movie product. If you try to remember all the films released on the cinema screens in the history of the cinema, or at least for the last 25 years, it soon turns out that this calculation does not make sense.
It's true that every year screens of cinemas are stormed by hundreds of movie pictures, each of which tells a unique story, the purpose of which is to achieve understanding and love of the audience. What is there to hide, most of the produced paintings do not reach their goal. Viewers are always determined to see something new, let it be a fresh or a new story told by an old story. A maximum of a couple dozen paintings a year gets recognition from the audience. They become events in the history of world cinema and fill out lists of the top best films.
"Thin red line" between genres
If you go into the specifics of each genre and look for unique lists of the best films in a certain genre, you can very quickly understand how much the boundaries between one genre and another are shattered. For example, in the top of the best horror films can include such pictures as "Stranger", "I am a legend", "Mummy", "Predator" and many others that do not quite belong to this genre. The same pictures can be found in the lists of the best fantasy films, and in the lists of the best adventure films. The boundaries of all genres are erased, which proves the existence of such a film as Quentin Tarantino's "Jango Liberated" in the list of the best comedies in the history of cinema, as well as in the list of the best westerns and historical films. As for the horror films, Stanley Kubrick's "Shining" in the level of production, the quality of the actor's, cameraman, director's work and composer's work, perhaps, stands first. With this film can compete only Hitchcock paintings, in which often the genre of the thriller transforms into a genre of horror. An important niche in the history of cinema is the film "The Exorcist" of 1973, which, in turn, caused a third of the American population to regain faith in God.
Overall rating of the best films
As for the top hundred best films, which include movie masterpieces of different genres, such lists are published almost every day, and it is very difficult to find a really authentic one, in which the seats are displayed depending on the significance of the film. If you infiltrate every top film, you can see that the film "Citizen Kane" by Orson Welles leads most of them. The question arises: why this film is chosen by the whole world professional community as its favorite. Everything is very simple. In order to find the best film in history, it is necessary to understand which film masterpiece in its turn has expanded the scope of the cinema as widely as possible, introducing new elements into the film language. If you take the most serious films as seriously as possible, you need to know that such films as "The Godfather" of Francis Ford Coppola, Stanley Kubrick's 2001: The Space Odyssey, Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List, must find their place in this List.
