"War" with all quiet on the western front would round out the quiz nicely. I would recommend making the colors easier to see though, and giving less time

Rebecca is much more of a mystery than a thriller

The Great Ziegfeld (1936) wasn't a biopic? Also, tricky how you put Hamlet out of chronological order.

Thank you DarkPhalanx, ShadowPlay, and zutluvip. I changed the color of the text color to white, so that should help with visibility. To zutluvip, thanks for the correction, to ShadowPlay, Rebecca is technically a psychological thriller, and, to DarkPhalanx, I added the "War" category, but "All Quiet on the Western Front" wasn't the first war film to win. Thanks again you guys.

'A Clockwork Orange' is usually considered science-fiction, as well, so that one would beat out 'Star Wars'.
