Ultimately, I'm really not sure I've watched enough films to be qualified to contribute to a poll such as this. The films I have chosen are those which have had a profound impact on the way I think about film and/or which continue to haunt me in some way. I have missed many contenders out – not to mention many amazing documentaries – but stuck on a desert island, I could watch these again and again, seeing, feeling and learning new things each time.
