![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The book was important enough to make this project to exist. I'm tend to go with the latter one on both accounts, since there is great classics missing (Schneider's list begins in 1902 and he forgets to mention early important cinema moments from Lumière brothers, the official birth of cinema) or films that shouldn't been there at all ("The Mad Masters", really? Shockumentary is an almost pointless genre). For cinema lovers, the book can go two ways: worthy of praise because it contains commendable films, all the best film has to offer or highly controversial because either there's film that don't need to be there or because there's something missing. There isn't actually 1001 films since each year goes by, a new entry of films are included and some are removed from the list. A few years down the road Steven Jay Schneider composed one of the most interesting books of recent years, the compilation of greatest films ever made entitled "1001 Movies to See Before You Die". ![]()
