I instead of repeating my top ten from 2002, I decided it would be interesting to select my favourites only from films made since 1992, if only to prove the point that original filmmaking didn't just peter out in mid-1970s – that great works could still be made in cinema's period of decline, against the odds. I'm doing this in the safe knowledge that Citizen Kane, Tokyo Story, Bicycle Thieves, The Godfather etc will still come top of the poll, and that none of my choices will make the overall top ten.
