Essential Films
I was recently talking to someone about films and I kept referring to amassing films that they had not seen. So I was asked to provide a list of films to watch. So this is a list of films, somewhere between my favourite films and a list of films that must been seen. Also note this is in no order and I'm aiming for the 50 mark.
