Las 500 mejores películas de la historia del cine
Partiendo desde los inicios de la historia del cine hasta el siglo XXI, he hecho un listado recopilando las 500 mejores películas de todos los tiempos. La clasificación incluye tanto películas de cine arte como de corte comercial exhibidas en Hollywood, así como muchos filmes ausentes en la controversial lista publicada por la revista estadounidense Empire y grandes directores como Akira Kurosawa, Francis Ford Coppola, Kenji Mizoguchi, Raoul Walsh, Ingmar Bergman, D.W. Griffith, Orson Welles, Luis Buñuel, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Carl Theodore Dreyer, Steven Spielberg, Andrei Tarkovsky, G.W Pabst, Abbas Kiarostami, Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsese, entre otros. La lista se actualizará periódicamente con el paso de los años a medida que ingresen nuevas películas con tal de formar una distribución equilibrada entre el cine clásico y el cine contemporáneo.
