Film Studies Association of Canada's Top 100 Films
Favs/dislikes: 8:0. I humbly submit my latest attempt at making a "100 Best Films" list. I understand why most intelligent film scholars reject list-making and canon formation altogether. I do it mainly because I'm appalled at all of the lists I see in print. The AFI Best 100 American Films is, of course, the worst of the well-known examples because it was a totally corrupt exercise at promoting Hollywood (Major) studio films that were already available on video. It did nothing to help preserve and distribute worthy and lesser-known titles. I also have problems in producing a list of only 100 films. The BFI idea of creating a repertory of 360 films for every (non-holi)day of the year is a great one, but unfortunately, theirs is much too heavily weighted towards Hollywood product -- over one third of the titles are American (139). My own film studies formation (at Concordia and NYU) led me to see more American and French films than any other, and most people would agree that in the historical development of film style, they are the two key nations. But the Hollywood dominance of "best films" lists has become unacceptable. (And, I am sure that if FSAC were to do a compilation of their own members' choices, we would see a similar trend.) My list reflects a choice of films which, for me, represents the development of "Film as Art" whatever that might mean. I regret the exclusion of animated films÷I considered including one or two titles, but in the end decided it was best for me to stay away from a field I know very little about. I didn't deliberately exclude "entertainment" -- approximately a quarter of my list could classify here -- but this was not a major consideration. Peter Rist Concordia University -
Israeli Film: A Reference Guide
Favs/dislikes: 8:0. From the book "Israeli Film: A Reference Guide" by Amy Kronish and Costel Safirman. "Israeli cinema is a central tool for understanding the contemporary challenges facing Israeli society as it has developed its identity during the past decades. Although films can be considered individual pieces of work, we can gain a unique perspective on the nation's society through a careful analysis of the subject matter, issues, and styles of expression of this unique medium. Since its inception, Israeli cinema has been occupied with the hardships of an ongoing war, problems of Jewish-Arab relations, and the major survival issues of the state. Despite this focus, Israeli filmmaking is in fact much more complex and varied. Indeed, it covers a wide spectrum of issues that have developed during the 70 years during the production of its first feature film. Israeli Film: A Reference Guide provides a survey of all major films made in Israel, as well as biographies of major Israeli filmmakers and an overview essay summarizing major trends in Israeli film—and, in doing so, offers a commentary on social trends, historical challenges, and societal issues." One title is missing from the IMDb: 193. Shalosh Sha'ot Be'Yuni (aka "Three Hours in June") (dir. Ilan Eldad) -

Cinema Papers' 100 Key Australian Films
Favs/dislikes: 7:0. In 1995, the Australian film magazine "Cinema Papers" polled over 6,000 members of the Australian film community to determine the "100 key films" of the Australian cinema. Those polled included "accredited members of the Australian Film Institute; industry guilds and unions; film critics and reviewers; academics and media teachers; and the NFSA's Kookaburra Card members. "'Key' films were designated as those that have made a notable aesthetic, technical or historically important contribution to Australian cinema. Similarly, the criteria for 'Australia-ness' was defined broadly rather than narrowly." The list excludes any films "made specifically for television or non-film formats."
