Cobra (Joseph Henabery / USA)
La fille de l’eau “Whirlpool of Fate” (Jean Renoir / France)
The Eagle (Clarence Brown / USA)

What I’m asking you to do is to fill a ballot with some titles of your own choice. 1925 must be the year of first release (according to IMDb).
- Each person votes for up to 20 movies. Do not feel compelled to fill the maximum allowable number, only true favorites.
– There is no need to rank the films except the number 1, it gets two points.
– You may change your ballot as many times as you’d like.
A certain standardization of the outcome is predictable, but it is not our goal to establish a Canon. It’s just a game and individual votes are the true centers of attraction.
Results will be presented in a specially created Movie List.
Thank you in advance for joining us in this game.
