I'd need to watch The Searchers again, but right now I disagree with how high it is. Not even close to being the greatest Western, and I thought its villainization of Native Americans was particularly egregious, even for its time.

An obvious problem with this list is that the newest of those top 25 was made in 1980. Does anyone really believe that all the best films of all time were made prior to 1980? With all the advancements we've made?

That's how you know this list is legit. Agreed. I find aggregates to be a good reminder of widely loved classics I know I should see eventually, but personal canons are always far more fascinating.
