Honoring the 10th anniversary of its award-winning series, the American Film Institute (AFI) again conducted
a poll of 1500 film artists, critics, and historians, asking them to pick their 100 favorite films from a list of 400. The films on the list were made between 1915 and 2005.
After tallying the responses, AFI compiled a list representing the top 100 films. Citizen Kane, made in 1941, again finished in the first place, followed by The Godfather, which was made in 1972. The attached table shows the top 40 finishers in the poll. [SOURCE: Data from AFI’s 100 Years. . . 100 Movies — 10th Anniversary Edition. Published by the American Film Institute]
