I don't know, seems like if they're telling a story, it's not too hard to be on the scale of two or more hours - just like any other movie. I guess if all they're interested in is being scary, it's...

The AFI typically doesn't include non-American films in their lists (it's no Sight & Sound/BFI in that regard).

It's a musical in the same way a lot of the classic Disney films are also musicals. Though Alice's musical numbers are delightfully unhinged in their topics, IIRC. If Alice had crossed my mind, I...

Looking at Cinderella coming in at 100 with 35 points, means you think there's a 30% chance it didn't manage to get 10 points from everyone else (or a 70% chance it did).
