From a book published in 1962 titled Classics of the Foreign Film, A Pictorial Treasury by Parker Tyler

"Out of thousands of films from abroad from "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" to the present, one of the nation's leading film authorities selects seventy-five he considers the greatest. With a perceptive commentary and hundreds of carefully selected photographs."

77 films are listed because the author included Olympia and Ivan the Terrible as single entries.
