The 1,0. 00 Greatest Films (Introduction)The banner image above is from David Lynch's. The Straight Story, the 1,0. INTRODUCTION to the 1,0. Greatest Films. Current Version: February 2. Bill Georgaris. The Highest Entrant. Thank you for your enthusiasm and support of this ongoing project. This year’s update could somewhat be labelled the realignment edition.
Realignment, because I have: 1) Eliminated a previously significant formula/weighting from the mathematical process, and. Modified my collation/inclusion processes with regards to critics' ballots. First- off, I have removed the 'stood- the- test- of- time' formula. This formula disadvantaged films released within ten years of the poll or ballot they were listed in. After many years of adopting this approach, I finally concluded, during 2. As a result, many recent films have deservedly charged their way up this year's 1,0. Greatest Films listing.
Some of these films include There Will Be Blood (2. Cach. Secondly, I have now included all best- film- of- all- time ballots published for each critic, no matter how many. Previously, I would only include the last published ballot from a given critic, plus those films from each critic’s previous ballots that were not included in their last published ballot. The ballots are, of course, weighted accordingly from newest to oldest. For example, Adoor Gopalakrishnan’s 2. Sight & Sound ballot is weighted higher than his 1.
Sight & Sound ballot. The aim of this change is to properly recognise and reward films that regularly appear on the same critic's ballots. By removing/modifying these two elements, I believe that the 1,0. Greatest Films listing is now a purer, less- massaged compilation of the most critically acclaimed films of all- time. The two main formula weightings that remain are with respects to: 1)The poll type (best- of- all- time lists are weighted much higher than genre lists, or national lists, or best- of- decade lists, etc.)2)The poll year (a list from 2.
The net result of the above changes along with the addition of hundreds of more lists during 2. Greatest Films listing.
Reflecting perhaps the realignment process, only 1. Steve Mc. Queen’s.
Hunger was the highest entrant. The other 4. 3 films are all re- entries.
The number of best- of/all- time individual lists now tallies 5,4. The number of miscellaneous lists used (genre- based, country- based, etc.) now sits at 3,3.
That’s 8,7. 97 unique lists in total.
