Noted film critic Roger Ebert was not a fan of lists, a point he made clear when he submitted his ten favorite films to the 2012 Sight & Sound poll (“Lists are ridiculous, but if you’re going to vote, you have to play the game”). As such, this is not an “official” list issued by Ebert of his top 100 movies, but one created by aggregating multiple sources, including lists he has submitted to Sight & Sound, his best-of year and best-of-decade lists, his four Great Movies books, and films he has given 4 out 4 stars.
