Very nice team.
There were a few almosts or honourable mentions:
The aforementioned "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly should have made this team. It would have if it was placed in the Western category as it should have been! Young Guns indeed!!!
Love Actually is my favourite chick flick. It couldn't dislodge Wedding Crashers though. That's the funniest movie I've seen in recent years.
The Big Sleep and Vertigo were close but North By Northwest is probably my favourite Hitchcock, even moreso than my Rear Window pick, which I surprisingly took before NBNW! What was I thinking?
Next up: IJAFW's Top 10 placing for this draft. (I'm working on it!)
