History of Film Infographic
Check out this epic visual representation of the history of film. The designer spent 3 years collecting data for this poster. It focuses on feature-length films, and is split into genres. For inclusion on the poster, the films ranked according to a set of criteria, including critical acclaim and awards. Although even these criteria do not provide a fail-safe collection of "important" films, the list is certainly fun to look at. I spotted not one, but TWO of our winter films below!
