Faced with the unimaginable task of a ten-film list, I decided on a wild combination of some of the films that changed my life and made me choose never to be too far from a cinema; and of a few, just as transformative, which came up later and keep coming, stunning me over and over again with the same questions: how could this film even exist? How could I not have known of it before? How, and by whom, is the history of cinema written and rewritten?
