Each year film scholars Kristin Thompson and David Bordwell release a list of the greatest surviving films from 90 years prior. The project started in 2007 to celebrate "the birth of classical cinema" in 1917, when Hollywood filmmakers developed the shooting and editing techniques that have been the basis of narrative film ever since.
