Now I'll warn you right now, I'm whipping out my not-so-inner film snob here but the point is actually to get input from you all. We got three weeks left until actual honest-to-gawd football and anything that keeps us occupied till then is a godsend. The Wall Street Journal did a story today on what I consider the greatest film ever made, Max Ophul's "Earrings of Madame de..." and I thought I'd pull together my list and post it for you y'alls input (yeah, I pretty much know what to expect in terms of the response).

• "Ace in the Hole," Billy Wilder
• "Ashes and Diamonds," Andrezej Wajda
• "Beauty and the Beast," Jean Cocteau
• "Bicycle Thieves," Vittorio De Sica
• "The Earrings of Madame de....," Max Ophuls
• "A Man Escaped," Robert Bresson
• "Night of the Hunter," Charles Laughton
• "Notorious," Alfred Hitchcock
• "The Rules of the Game," Jean Renoir
• "The Searchers," John Ford
