Poll: Most Deserving AFI 100 Movies Addition

A poll by urbanemovies
The American Film Institute released its inaugural 100 Years ... 100 Movies list in 1998. The list spawned a dozen other top 100 lists over the years and a revised 10th Anniversary Edition in 2007. An anticipated 20th anniversary list could include new films from the past decade or previously overlooked classic movies. AFI used a panel of 1500 cinephiles to choose 100 American films based on critical recognition, award wins, popularity, cultural impact, and innovation to film.

Which movie NOT on AFI's last 100 Years ... 100 Movies is most worthy of your vote on an updated list? * minimum requirements: American-made, multiple Oscar wins and an IMDb Top 125 ranking (data as of 18 January 2018)
