I have seen 62 films from the 30s. And only like 25 enough to put them on as-yet unfinished yearly top 10s.

In crix pix terms, I am 'PRO' on only the first 28 of these 100, and 'pro' on the rest. And I've only seen 146 from the decade. The big ones I've yet to see: Olympia, Love Me Tonight, I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang, The Merry Widow, The Testament of Dr. Mabuse, Make Way for Tomorrow and various Laurel & Hardy --most of which are in my rental queue.
At least when I get around to posting my Top 100 of the 40s it won't share any titles with my Bottom 100 of the 40s.
