A series of films screened at the Metrograph theater in New York. The films screened in alphabetical order, with the only restriction being that only one film (or sometimes, one program of shorts) was selected for any director. They only broke this rule for John Ford, who has multiple "S" movies on the list (http://metrograph.com/series/series/75/welcome-to-metrograph-john-ford-edition).

Now expanded to include the films from the currently-ongoing A to Z Round 2 series.

One film in the series isn't on IMDB:

Tighten Your Belts, Bite the Bullet (1980, directed by Martin Lucas, James Gaffney, and Jonathan Miller)
