Gosh, I seem to have missed the boat in recent times. I have nothing of interest to add to the Kane/Ambersons discussion since I admire Touch of Evil more than either (although one reason why is the function of Quinlan's cane, which obviously requires some knowledge of Kane to appreciate!). My ten is just *a* ten, and not necessarily a top ten because I have no idea how to justify to myself what constitutes "top" (re-watchability perhaps, but I'm not so sure that is an entirely valid reason). Here goes (chronological order, excluding umpteen no-brainers):

It's a Gift
The Major and the Minor
Gilda
Force of Evil
Unfaithfully Yours
Sweet Smell of Success
Rio Bravo
Day of the Dead
Showgirls
Bowfinger

I'm all for some mud-slinging re: the above!
