I've watched movies be it hard core banned or comical, deep staricial genre or swashbuckling adventures and I always compare each one against my top ten list hoping a new one will make it into 'my' list. It's the end of 2010, and no movie this year had even come close to my top ten or rather 11 list. Not even James Cameron's Avatar.
Here's my all time top ELEVEN list:-
(based on all the movies I've watched not in chronological or best list order.)
1. The Cassandra Crossing.
Sophia Loren, Richard Harris.

Director : Steven Speilberg.
