100 فیلم برتر قرن بیستم به انتخاب انجمن فیلمسازهای آمریکایی – شما چند تا از این فیلم‌ها را دیده‌اید؟

انجمن فیلمسازهای آمریکایی در 8 ژانویه سال 1919 تایسیس شد. به مناسبت 100 سالگی این انجمن، اعضایش 100 فیلم برتر قرن بیستم را انتخاب کرده‌اند.

فهرست‌های سینمایی همیشه محدودیت‌های خود را داشته‌اند و نبود فیلمی در آن، به گمان من نباید حساسیت برانگیز شود.

این فهرست‌ها در واقع بزرگداشت آثار و مشوقی برای دیدن آنها، توسط نسلی هستند که شاید حتی در قرن بیستم به دنیا هم نیامده بودند.

در فهرست زیر، ده فیلم اول بر اساس تعداد آرا رتبه‌بندی شده‌اند، اما بقیه فیلم‌ها به صورت رندم درج شده‌اند.
