My 100 Favorite Movies of All Time
(Tiếng Việt bên dưới)
Notes:
– Making this list was not an easy process at all, because there are so many directors whose work I love and adore deep to the bone. These 100 films are not necessarily the best films in my opinion, but they are films which touched me and provoked my emotion the most.
– Despite the temptation of throwing in the whole oeuvre of my favorite directors’ (like Kurosawa, Bergman, Wenders…), I would like to keep this list from a wide-angle lens as much as possible, hence only one film per director.
– This is a personal list, and cinema is strictly subjective – so spare us dicussions such as “Why the hell is this film even on this list?” or “Where is the film A of director X? How can you miss that?”
– These films are not listed in any particular order.
Ghi chú:
- Làm cái danh sách này tưởng dễ mà không dễ chút nào vì có quá nhiều đạo diễn và nhiều phim tôi yêu thích thực sự. Chưa chắc 100 phim này đã là những phim xuất sắc nhất (mà thế nào là xuất sắc khi gu nghệ thuật chỉ mang tính chủ quan?) - thay vào đó đây là 100 phim chạm vào đến đáy cảm xúc nhất.
- Bất chấp ham muốn định cho tất cả phim của những đạo diễn yêu thích nhất của tôi như David Lynch, Akira Kurosawa, Andrei Tarkovsky, Wim Wenders… để giữ cho lăng kính của danh sách này trải rộng, tôi chỉ chọn tối đa một phim cho mỗi đạo diễn.
- Danh sách này không sắp xếp theo chủ đề nào.
