I don't have this, but my top four off the top of my head:

  1. War and Peace (I don't think another film has ever or will ever hit the heights of this film. CGI is fundamentally unable to produce thi. Like this film makes me weep for what was possible, but instead we have to churn out the nth Marvel slop. Without soviet cinema Hollywood would have always sucked, and now it returns to sucking.)
  2. La Chinoise - Godard was the greatest artist of the 20th century. This film is likely not his best, but it's my favorite.
  3. The Gleaners and I - ❤️ Varda, the follow up is also beautiful. Her narrative cinema was also great, but this doc will always hold a special place in my heat.
  4. Gummo - This is the pinnacle of American cinema don't @ me. Runner up goes to Julian Donkey Boy. (People who say Korrine is being cruel in these films are saying more about themselves than the film. Okay that's a hot take, and Tbc i don't like him as a person either lol.)

Special mention: Together by Moodyson. A bunch of Swedish communists live together in a commune. The film starts with the entire house celebrating the death of Franco lol. (Unfortunately the follow up was meh). His other film We Are Best is also wonderful. It's about a group of young girls who want to start a punk band. Both are good films to watch when you are feeling down. But keep in mind the rest of his catalog is a bit more serious.
