One of the best movie years ever. But you neglected to even give honorable mention to some great movies – American Beauty, the Sixth Sense, Office Space, October Sky, South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, Go.

You covered a lot for 1999. One of the better years when you consider some of the better films from 1998 were actually released in 1999.

Here are 10 more to consider:

One Day in September [Macdonald]
Not One Less [Yimou]
My Best Fiend [Herzog]
The Girl on the Bridge [Leconte]
Buena Vista Social Club [Wenders]
The Color of Paradise [Majidi]
It All Starts Today [Tavernier]
Three Seasons [Bui]
Go [Liman]
Rosetta [Dardenne Bros] [you included this].

Leaving American Beauty out of this list is simply incomprehensible. Not even mentioning it can’t be anything but pretentious.

1999 was a great a year. Don’t think I’ve seen a better year since. But I think American Beauty and Toy Story 2 deserved to make the cut. Beau Travail didnt deserve the top spot.

2.The Matrix
3.8mm
4.The Sixth Sense
5.The Green Mile
6.The Insider
7.Sleepy Hollow
8.Magnolia
