How are The Element of Crime[0], THX1138[1] and the Qatsi Trilogy[2] not on this list?
The former is simply the best film ever made, the second interesting as a gritty example of lowish budget success in a completely different genre from that which the (very famous) director became known for (and is a successful remake of a film from his student days), and the latter proves once and for all the power of cinema regardless of conventional plot.
