I just noticed all Evil Dead films are on there (Evil Dead is in Horror, ED2 and Army of Darkness are in Comedy).
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Also, Gattaca belongs on that list.

Bah, the only Eastwood westerns that should be on there Unforgiven, Josey Wales, and GBU. Rest are crap. Not a bad list, but there is some crap on it.

Agree that "Once Upon a Time in the West" should definitely be on there.

And it may be a "late" Western, but "The Professionals" is a fantastic film as well.

That "Essential Films" list looks like it was slapped together by Timmay, Ide and Wikipedia searches.
