How to choose from this collection

Every film runs for 120 minutes or less. The shortest is 81 minutes and the longest is 120 minutes. The Comedy label comes from the catalogue genres; a film can belong to more than one genre.

How the ranking works

Total combines 40% audience ratings, 30% critic ratings and 30% original award points, with a bonus for recognition by additional institutions. Scores shown to one decimal place can be tied while their unrounded ranking differs. A Critics score marked ~ is estimated from the catalogue median; its Total is provisional. Recognition years refer to ceremonies and festival editions, not necessarily release dates.
