Casablanca was my #5, The Third Man was my #3 and Citizen Kane was my #1. So, all in all, quite a good top three to the overall countdown, I'd say. :) I'm quite surprised The Third Man placed ahead...

It's a Wonderful Life was my #21, and The Maltese Falcon my #16. :) I'm surprised the latter made it to #4 on the countdown without anyone putting it at #1 on their list.

Rebecca was my #20. I hadn't expected all of Hitchcock's films to place this highly on the countdown (compared to, say, his more well-known 50s films), but then again, he is a very popular director...

Late Spring was my #2! :) It's been a while since any other film on my list showed up, though, so at this point it's safe to say a few of them didn't make it (#13, #18, #23). Funnily enough, I...
