'Top Ten movies of all times' by K.J.S.Chatrath


...................................Roger Joseph Ebert..............................

It is a common topic during conversations about cinema, “Which are your 3 or 5 or 10 favourite films of all times, from around the world”? While each one of us has his own list of ten best, here is the list of Ebert.


Roger Joseph Ebert was an American film critic and historian, journalist, screenwriter and author. He was a film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times from 1967 until his death in 2013
Roger Ebert’s top ten movies:

1. Werner Herzog’s Aguirre, Wrath of God;
2. Francis Ford Coppola’s Apocalypse Now;
3. Orsen Well’s Citizen Kane;
4. Fedrico Fellini’s La Dolce Vita;
5. Buster Keaton’s The General;
6. Martin Scorcese’s The Raging Bull;
7. Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey;
8. Yasujiro’s Tokyo Story
9. Terence Malick’s The Tree of Life
10. Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo.

Quite oddly, not even one French film had made it to Ebert's list.I have not seen some films out of this list. And I won’t give out my favourites till I have seen all these ten.

What about your list?
