From the TIME Archive
The one movie I feel should have definitely made the list (of top 3 movies, let alone 100), is Seven Samurai. Maybe this was an oversight because you didn't want more than two Kurosawa films on the list? If this was the case, I feel Seven Samurai is a better movie than Yojimbo.

Screenplay: Daniel Mainwaring (novel Build My Gallows High) (as Geoffrey Homes); Daniel Mainwaring (as Geoffrey Homes), Frank Fenton (uncredited), James M. Cain (uncredited)

t has the smartest dialogue and the most persuasively labyrinthine plot of any film noir. And Robert Mitchum gives a great performance as the tough, laconic guy in a trench coat, undone by his love for—or is it merely sexual obsession with?—Jane Greer's scheming bitch-goddess. TIME (Dec. 15, 1947) didn't like Mitchum ("Bing Crosby supersaturated with barbiturates") but found Greer "in an ancient idiom, as a hot number."—R.S.From the TIME Archive:
Fairly well played, and very well photographed, the action develops a routine kind of pseudo-tension
