Adding more fuel to the the discussion of what, and who, defines the great films, the Alliance of Women Film Journalists have posted their Top 100 films. One of the complaints about lists, such as that recently posted by the American Film Institute is that their were no women filmmakers listed in their top 100 and only five were listed in the top 400. The AWFJ list includes films from male and female filmmakers from around the world. Jane Campion is noted for The Piano and Angel at my Table. Recent Academy Award nominee Deepa Menta is cited for Water. The list even includes Amy Heckerling’s Clueless. Among the guys nominated are the usual suspects – Welles, Hitchcock, Capra, and even Martin Scorsese. Those interested in checking out the full list will want to click here. I only wish they could have included at least one film by Kathryn Bigelow.
