Movie Canon - The definitive list of cinematic masterpieces from 1902 to 2024 #924726

A list of 592 films that have made and constitute the history of cinema. A history that unfolds its charms through billions of frames and, more than any other, captivates us in a sort of iconographic spell. We are talking about films that are a must-see, works that we recommend without reservation to all those who love the Seventh Art. A list that aims to bring together the masterpieces that everyone knows or has heard of at least once, but also those films that have left their mark in some way on the history of this magnificent art, and even those films that we believe are worthy of appearing here simply because they moved us, entertained us, and gave us two hours of pure ecstasy. The work covers a historical period from 1902 to 2024. The criteria for selecting the films are, in order of importance: artistic value, historical significance, box office success, and critical acclaim.
