The Five-orates MegaChallenge List! These are my five favorite films from every year, assembled into one big challenge watchlist for anyone who dares venture into what makes me tick. This will be updated continually, along with the individual yearly lists, as new choices replace old ones. The list is sorted by oldest year first, encompassing the range of 1930 to the present, with an aim to mostly encapsulate the history of sound cinema.
