キネマ旬報 読者が選んだ心に残る日本映画

Source is the list on Mubi, but that's not the original source.

List can also be found halfway down on this page, in Japanese:キネマ旬報 読者が選んだ心に残る日本映画 (including accurate placement of each film, with ties)

As best as I can tell, this poll is from 2009. It might be here

Ningen no jôken trilogy is counted as one entry.

Differences from the Mubi list:
• Some films are in a different order, since I took the order from the other page.
• Mubi is missing a few films from the other list, some of which are mentioned at the top as not being on the site, and others omitted altogether.
• Mubi includes Four Dimensions of Greta, a British film that is almost certainly an error.
• Mubi includes 限りなき鋪道 (Kagirinaki hodô/Street Without End 1934) whereas the other source seems to include 限りなき前進 (Kagirinaki zenshin/Unending Advance 1937).
• Mubi includes 夫婦 (Fûfu/Husband and Wife 1953) whereas the other source seems to include 夫婦善哉 (Meoto zenzai/Marital Relations 1955).
• Mubi includes 鏡心 (Kyôshin/Mirrored Mind (2004), which is not listed in the other source.
• Mubi includes ナビィの恋 (Nabbie no koi/Nabbie's Love 1999), which is not listed in the other source.
