Top 10?... don't make me laugh
Top 100?... child's play!
Top 1000!... now you're talkin'
The good folks at the guardian.co.uk, the online version of the the U.K. newspaper founded in 1821 recently released a list of what they considered "1000 novels everyone must read!" So when you're stuck with that patron that's read everything you can suggest, give 'em this site and perhaps they'll find a book or two.
1000 novels everyone must read!
If that's not enough, they've previously released lists of "1000 films to see before you die" & "1000 albums to hear before you die" (see, they're thinking RAVALA too!)
1000 films to see before you die!
1000 albums to hear before you die!
For a lighter side of a top 100, check out this video "100 Movies, 100 Quotes, 100 Numbers." How many movies in the countdown can you name?
enjoy!

OMG Andrew! I need to put down anything I have going on and start reading! I looked at the 1000 books and have decided that I am a true neophyte in the reading area! Gotta go find a book!

I took a look at the 1,000 list of films to see before you die and found many of the titles to be foreign ones I have never heard of. A better list is the top 100 put out by the American Film Institute or Leonard Maltin's 100 Must -See Films of the 20th Century (www.filmsite.org/maltin.html). There is also a book in our collectio, 1001 Movies You MUst See Before You Die by Schneider that I use for my film class that is excellent. Happy film viewing.
