The most memorable moment in the film – described in the book but not with dialogue.
note: Not the strongest Top 5 and a fairly weak second 5. But it had a lot of solid scripts (good enough to make the list) so there’s a more sizable continuation down at the bottom. (more…)

This is the 10th part of the Top 1000 list. The introduction can be found here. This might be the only group of 50 in the Top 1000 without a single Hitchcock, Spielberg, Kurosawa or Woody Allen film among them.

DisneyIt began with a man named Walt and a mouse named Mickey. But of course neither of those things is actually true and that’s part of the image that lies behind the company that is not only the most successful movie studio at work today but pretty much an all-encompassing way of life that can not be ignored.
