For most city residents, who have only one entrance and a sidewalk to clear off, a fan phase of gas will work. Most of the best snow blower fans are ideal for phase two black roads.

No doubt, Jesse (if you are referring to the AFI list – the list I posted here is from Mediascape and specifies only US movies, explaining the exclusion of Duras and Denis and Varda). I don’t think they spent much time actively curating selections, it was more of an experiment to see what their 27 members could come up with in less than a week in response to the AFI. (So is it reassuring or depressing that you might be more film literate than they are?)

Once I saw Amelie on the AFI list my enthusiasm plummeted…

It certainly gets at some of the flaws of the AFI list, though it’s still unabashedly populist… which I think the omission of Claire Denis, let alone a visionary like Marguerite Duras fails to make the list (not to say anything of Varda’s ClÃ©o!). But it’s nice to see Deren appear on a list like this.
