The MoFo Top 100 of the 60s: Countdown

Daniel M did a wonderful job with the 60's list. Thank you for taking the time for this.

Doing that manually would have taken a while, but i've managed to export the spreadsheet as a PDF containing the film name, its number, total points and lists. PDF files lets you search using Ctrl+F

Thanks Daniel the PDF works great.

Okay, here's my complete list. I must admit I'm sad I had those health problems show up out of nowhere, which forced me to slow down on movie watching and thereby ruin my pace for watching 60s films...

I didn't get around nearly as many movies from my 60s watchlist as I wanted and that resulted in a very uneven and messy list, but nevertheless I'm glad I at least got to turn in a list in the end. I was dumb for not putting Der 90. Geburtstag oder Dinner for One at the 25th place, which would have put it into the one-pointers. Anyways, here is my list:

01. The Graduate #6
02. 2001: A Space Odessey #1
03. To Kill a Mockingbird #13
04. High and Low #23
05. Once Upon a Time in the West #5
06. Psycho #2
07. Rosemary's Baby #9
08. Planet of the Apes #14
09. The Good the Bad and the Ugly #3
10. For a Few Dollars More #22
11. For a Fistful of Dollars #51
12. Le Samourai #24
13. How the Grinch Stole Christmas #101
14. Cool Hand Luke #12
15. The Party
16. Harakiri #27
17. The Sound of Music #37
18. Lawrence of Arabia #7
19. Persona #11
20. The Virgin Spring #67
21. The Birds #18
22. Der 90. Geburtstag oder Dinner for One
23. From Russia with Love #87
24. Thunderball
25. Dr. No

my destiny on MoFo's to take on the all-time countdown in 2022, so i'm forced to turn down the documentaries offer

2022? More like 3022, with all these other ridiculous countdowns they wanna do first.

I'm holding you to it Nostro

Do it! You will do great!

I think you did a great job and would love to see you do docs. The obstacle for me in doing one is graphics. I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way. I hope you grab the reigns Harry Lime.

Maybe two people can team up, one does the graphics and the other the calculations.

Looks like there were only twenty-seven titles that weren't already on at least one other existing list.

We've alrewady done two all-time lists since I've been here. I'm thinking we do another two summers from now. Docs, 50s, something (ideas anyone? Sci-fi? Comedy? Non-English language?), then all-time. But then again I'm not the final say on the matter, just throwing out ideas.

Haha. I am not a graphics person. Not even close. If I were to run it I would employ/ask someone who's good at these things to come up with the graphics and thank them kindly.

And just to add in general I suggested we do documentaries because they are often missed in these countdowns that we do, this will be a way to put the other side of filmmaking on display.

*scoffs*

Non-English language? We've done a million of those.

What if you did a sequel to a countdown that's already been done -- and the rule is -- you can't put a movie on your list that was already on the first Top 100 of that countdown.

So, same kind of countdown, but with 100 totally different movies?

There was plenty of foreign films (non English language) represent on this countdown. On the other hand there wasn't nearly enough Musicals..we need to do at least 5 more Top 100 list on Musicals

Isn't there already a science fiction list? Would ours look all that much different? And it's not like we don't already know what the number one film would be... I don't look forward to the documentary list, but it's a logical choice and a good way to catch up on doc's. Then the 50s and eventually the 40s and beyond. A non-English list seems logical, except we can be sure everything selected would be on some other list.

I may go back to hating you. It was more fun.

There's already a list for musicals. And there was plenty of musicals on the 60s list.

That was a sarcasm joke

I suggest Documentaries next BUT not a Top 100.... Shorten it down to Top 50 and we submit our top 10 nomations, not 25.

I removed 2001 from my top 10 because I am too hipster to have such mainstream Hollywood movie in my top 10.
