They're doing a different genre every day so I imagine they'll be included in another genre as the same film hasn't been in more than one yet.

One of the rules is that a director only gets one film per genre and as a coppola film is at no.11 then no Godfathers.

More importantly, Godfather is included in another category.

The form of apostrophe used seems to make it impossible to get credit for "Miller's Crossing".

I'm bored of this so I'm posting the same message on all of these Guardian quizzes. The Guardian is a well established and respected (by most) newspaper in Britain. To celebrate the end of their film season, they're taking a genre for every day of this week and collating lists of the 25 films THEY THINK are the best in that genre. Obviously there are 7 days in every week so they therefore have had to combine some genres and miss some out altogether. At not point do they ever say that their lists are definitive. In fact, they have specific pages to let them know what you think of their list and to suggest what you think the list should be. Nobody's opinions in this are right or wrong. Plus it's a British newspaper so tastes will be different to a similar list in America just as I would expect this list to be different in Belarus or North Korea (although I've heard they love Team America over there). All I intended to do was to create some quizzes for people to try and guess what they put in their lists. That is all. Below is the link to where they ask you to suggest your own lists for this genre. http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/filmblog/2010/oct/17/best-crime-films-season-movies
