For absolutely different reasons, each movie in this list is one of the number one movies ever made. Due to the incredibly high gross(out) of bad movies that have been coming out, 10:1, at least and growing, every year since 1900, the good movies have been harder to spot, much easier to miss. This list is in no particular order and these movies are all must own. The Big Lebowski, Titanic, and forrest Gump do not appear on this list and do not belong near it, though those films are enjoyable in their own rights.

A cop chase of immeasurable proportions coincides with a car battle between the Blues Brothers and the Illinois Nazis, headed by Henry Gibson.
