i mean, even before i saw the afi rankings n saw citizen kane thought it was mind blowing. a distant second for me is vertigo 'cause it is so mesmerizing. n ofcourse audrey hepburn makes any of her movies enchanting. it's always such a pleasure n privilege to watch her.

also, forgot two masterpieces by Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray- Charulata (my preferred choice) n Pather Panchali (critic's choice). These two just a tad below Citizen Kane

That's an IMPOSSIBLE question- because it's SO subjective. Most of us are going to like something different...

8. The Ten Commandments
7. Patton
6. The Sound of Music
5. Vertigo
4. Gone With the Wind

I truly love 'The Count of Monte Cristo'
Kept me in it the whole time and such a great story line. Un-predictable and captivating.
Usually I am a comedy or old-films girl, but I *love* that movie. And I am hard to please in the films department. lol.
As for an all-around great movie, it scores a 10 in my book!

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Read the book first, then watch the movie.

I like epic movies, so would have to say, Ben-Hur, at the other extreme, Shawshank Redemption was also excellent.
