My votes would go to the wonderfully funny A Hard Day's Night and the timeless blackly comic satire of Dr. Strangelove, the best film of 1964 and an incredible landmark masterpiece that still holds up brilliantly today. My omissions would be Contempt(one of Godard's best and a beautiful film), Goldf...

My votes would go to the dazzling, ambiguous and chilling masterpiece that is Blowup and the great play adaptation that is Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

But, any noms beyond that would not at all be deserving. I'm curious to see how far the enthusiasm gets by the end of th...

My big omission would be Once Upon a Time in the West. Even though it's not primarily a writer's movie, I would still nominate it here and for other nominations. I would gladly nominate it for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor for Henry Fonda, Best Editing and Best Sound. I would al...
