This is my own compilation of the most acclaimed films of all time. My methodology is a bit different from TSPDT's. The main difference is that I'm giving a lot more weight to country and continent lists. I'm also using a much smaller number of lists because I'm only using lists that I like. This compilation is currently based on 71 lists.
