Comments

Of course, I think of many of the greatest films of all time that I didn’t include because of the arbitrary restrictions of this poll, such as Arme Leute (Vlado Kristl, 1963), Cairography (Kinda Hassan and Dalia Naous, 2013), Christmas on Earth (Barbara Rubin, 1963-65), Cul en l’air (My Levitating Butt, Pierre Yves Clouin, 1997), Fast Trip, Long Drop (Gregg Bordowitz, 1993), Forever Bottom! (Nguyen Tan Hoang, 1999), Happy Together (Wong Kar-wai, 1997), Hold Me While I’m Naked (George Kuchar, 1966), Home Stories (Matthias Müller, 1990), Inventur - Metzstrasse 11 (Želimir Žilnik, 1975), L Is for the Way You Look (Jean Carlomusto, 1991), Mababangong Bangungot (Perfumed Nightmare, Kidlat Tahimik, 1977), La Mujer der Puerto (Arcady Boytler, 1932), News from Home (Chantal Akerman, 1977), Now! (Santiago Alvarez, 1965), Rohfilm (W+B Hein, 1968), Ronnie (Curt McDowell, 1972), Salomè (Carmelo Bene, 1972), Super 8 Girl Games (Ashley Hans Scheirl and Ursula Pürrer, 1985), Der Tod der Maria Malibran (Werner Schroeter, 1972), The White to be Angry (Vaginal Davis, 1999), Winter Adé (Heike Misselwitz, 1988), and Zdravi ljudi za razonodu (Healthy People for Fun, Karpo Godina, 1971). But for now I’m happy with my 10.
