AFI: 10 Top 10
The American Film Institute recently announced a new series of Best Of lists. The 10 Top 10 lists the top ten films in ten popular genres; including Animation, Romantic Comedy, Western, Sports, Mystery, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Gangster, Courtroom Drama and Epic. Most of the choices are pretty straightforward and unsurprising but occasionally you will be thrown for a loop (i.e. almost no contemporary films in Mystery, Coen Brothers are mysteriously absent from any list and ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ didn’t make it in the Sci-Fi category! (I kid)).
Obviously no list can be completely thorough so I’m curious if there are any glaring oversights that you happened to catch?
