Might as well make a list that won't be over so rappidly, and 1000 seems like a challenge. I'll start it off with
1) Magnolia

2) To Live & Die In L.A.

When we're finished we can check our results against this list---top 1000 critically praised films (http://www.theyshootpictures.com/gf1000_all1000films.htm)---which I've been perusing to get some viewing ideas. (You can download a .pdf or excel file of the picks).

Fantastic choice and you're right, we've already had a repeat here with The Manchurian Candidate (1962) but also there were two 59 entries - The Man with the Golden Arm and Psycho so I guess this is still technically # 141.
