  1. It's a great list here Jeffrey, and I am particularly thrilled to see LETTER FROM AN UNKNOWN WOMAN, LA CHIENNE and THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER here, though it's great to see some love for underappreciated gems like SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS and MC CABE AND MRS. MILLER. I'm tempted to dive in, but I'll need more time. I always find myself changing my mind daily when it's comes to an all-time list. Ha!
