  1001. Bon Voyage (Rappeneau)
Author Comments: 

Top 100 or so favourites asterisked. Trying to do 1000 like Rosenbaum, but i've still to see quite a few contenders (especially in the last year). Angelopoulos, Akerman, Sjostrom, Feuillade, Naruse and early Ozu, among others, are short-changed by my not having seen enough of their films.
