Last week, The New York Times released its list of the 25 Best Films of the 21st Century So Far, with accompanying commentary from two of its better critics, Manohla Dargis and A.O. Scott, as well as eminent writers, directors, actors, and in some cases the makers of the selected films themselves. Clint Eastwood’s Million Dollar Baby appears at #3 on said list, so here is a far superior list with zero commentary.
