I've just reached the 75 out of 100 milestone - although only 142 out of the top 250. Problem is that some of the remaining movies are rather obscure and it's getting a lot harder to find them (expecially the 1920's silent ones!! The Cambridge Library has been a great source - but is now running dry. I may have to look for some of them on e-bay.
The top 100 movies i have seen this year (I've been busy!) include ...
