I applaud you for your effort and passion.  Rather than recycling a list of your favorites, you gave some explanation for your picks.  I haven't seen a couple of the films you listed, and cannot agree on a couple- i hated pierrot le fou despite anna karina (whom i adore, irrationally perhaps) and have never enjoyed l'avventura (although respected its' place in film history)- but i thought you did a great job conveying why you felt those films are important to you and the medium as a whole.  

now if i could do the same.
