We all like a list, but the desire to place every artistic entity into some sort of Top 10 really is getting out of hand. The most recent high-profile list was published in the Guardianand – after declaring that The Graduatewas an "arthouse film" and naming Rushmoreone of the 10 best comedies – eventually declared that Chinatownwas the greatest film ever made. I suppose there could have been many worse choices. At least that paper's film writers acknowledged the greatness of Team America: World Police.
