In this page, the greatest films of all time will be revisited and honoured. Unlike many other best and greatest films list that are based on the tastes and likes of voters, with not much explanation, here we attempt to discuss each film in some details, though nothing could justify what each of these great film truly deserves, other than perhaps the test of time. Here also unlike other lists, we could not limit ourselves to the top 50 or 100, hence we review the films that in one or another or all the ways deserve the recognition of the greatness.
Almost all available films in English or with English subtitles from the early years of inception of cinema in this list have been diligently reviewed. Since the originality criteria is very important and could affect the other criteria of technicality, impact and survival, this review has been so far until the year 2019. The following films that have been on some greatest films lists or have been ranked high or awarded by different organizations, have been particularly more carefully watched and reviewed.
In evaluation and recognition of the great and specifically the greatest films, beyond the factors of originality, technicality, impact factor and survival, the overall and instant impression of a film has been greatly considered. This impression that instantly in the first few minutes of the film befalls on the viewer, is what could move a film up the ladder of time and originality to the top of this list here. This impression factor also could include a film that’s not original in singularity, but original and novel in the application of previous original techniques.
The story content of the film does not bear any importance on this site in recognition and ranking the great films as it is customary in other awards and ranking recognitions. Also any adaptation from other sources such as novels or plays to the film takes off the originality of the film, unless such adaptation has become an original of its own. This list of greatest films of all time, unlike many other such lists is not limited to a certain number, e.g. 100, so it could be less or more and it is also ongoing, though the newer films have less chance or such recognition due to the lower chance of originality.
Lastly cinema as a common art medium unlike other arts, but like music cannot be “an art for art”, but “art for all”. This means that cinema as the only art medium, while being complex and applying other art media for enrichment, it has to be for everyone, entertaining and enlightening all. A great film could please the viewers of all kinds, from the ordinary minds to the most intellectual and critical ones.
