Lots of the ones I haven't seen are from the 30's and 40's, so it's not shocking, but some of them are Chaplin or Hitchcock films that I really should sit down and watch, just for reference (Double Indemnity, North by Northwest, City Lights, Modern Times)

Some notables that I have not yet seen:

17. The African Queen
21. The Grapes of Wrath
27. Bonnie and Clyde
30. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
39. Doctor Zhivago
41. West Side Story
57. The Third Man
64. Close Encounters of the Third Kind
69. Shane
88. Easy Rider

I guess my question is, which of these are "must watch". Which should I start with?
Cough, cough.

City Lights is a masterpiece. I'd still start with Treasure of Sierra Madre.
