The TRF Top Ten Movies Poll!

Dear friends,

I have done this a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. A movie top three. This is how it goes: I will provide an e-mail address and you provide me with your all-time top ten movies. After I have received enough entries, I will compile a list and make a poll. Your votes will eventually accumulate in a top three! The TRF Top Three Movies of All Time!

If, by some miracle, this catches on, we could do the same for music

great work Frans- i cannot believe i am the only person that has voted for the Usual suspects.

I do understand that everyone has there own types of film and preferences but this film is just unbelievable!! if you have not seen it i highly recommend that you do. that and Das Leben der Anderen- it is amazing too.

P.s who else voted for the third man?

I am surprised that "Gone with the Wind" has not received any votes at this point. Surprised, but frankly...I don't give a damn.
