Below is a subset of Roger Ebert's list of great films containing only those in his book "The Great Movies III", published in 2010.

An excerpt from Ebert's introduction to the book:
"I believe great movies are a civilizing force. They allow us to empathize with those whose lives are different than our own. I like to say they open windows in our box of space and time. Here's a third book filled with windows."
