Thanks for the great list. The best thing about "Greatest" lists, apart from starting a healthy debate and discussion, also introduces movies lovers (including yours truly) to good films which otherwise might have remained unseen.

How about a Greatest Ever list?

Ah man, that's a good challenge. There would definitely be more Foreign films in that list. Much more Kurosawa, Fellini, Bergman, Leone, etc... That'll take some time to figure out!
