My list of favorite movies is just that, my favorites, at the time I ranked them.  It is not a list of the greatest, most significant, or important movies.   Hence movies like Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind, and Lawrence of Arabia, although great movies, are not on the list since they are not my favorites.
