TL;DR

Few lists carry as much weight in cinema as the Sight & Sound poll, released every decade by the British Film Institute. The 2012 edition made headlines when Vertigo finally dethroned Citizen Kane after 50 years at the top, while films like Jeanne Dielman, Tokyo Story, and Man with a Movie Camera reminded voters that greatness spans continents and eras. This template brings together the full poll, from celebrated landmarks like Battleship Potemkin and 2001: A Space Odyssey to deeper cuts like Touki Bouki, Daisies, and A Brighter Summer Day. Whether you're a seasoned cinephile or just beginning to explore world cinema, this is your chance to build your own ranking and see where you stand against the critics.

FAQ

What is a tier list?

A tier list is a ranking system that groups items into labeled tiers (typically S, A, B, C, D, F) based on their relative strength, quality, or preference. Tier lists are widely used to rank characters, weapons, songs, movies, games, and any topic where comparison matters.

How do I play "The Sight & Sound Greatest Films of All Time 2022"?

Drag and drop items from the pool into your preferred tier rows. You can move items between tiers freely until you are satisfied with your ranking. Once finished, save your result to share it with the community, generate a breakdown, or compare your picks with other players on GOATY.

Can I share my results?

Yes. After completing a tier list, you can download your result as an image or share it online. To create a public result link, sign in and make the result public so anyone can open it.
