Unfulfilled Ambitions

One of my ambitions in life is to watch all the movies listed in IMDB's Top 100 before I die, or before I pass out from here, whichever happens first. Don't gawk, I have better ambitions too, I just said "one of my". I was going through the list to check how I am doing. Here are the ones I haven't seen yet.

12 Angry Men (21)
Lawrence of Arabia (26)
Sunset Boulevard (29)
It's A Wonderful Life (32)
Paths of Glory (35)
The Third Man (38)
Vertigo (40)
Double Indemnity (41)
Singin' In The Rain (42)
Das Boot (43)
M (44)
All About Eve (50)
Chinatown (61)
Some Like It Hot (62)
Mr Smith Goes To Washington (63)
The Treasure of The Sierra Madre (64)
The Manchurian Candidate (66)
The Sting (67)
Touch of Evil (72)
Metropolis (79)
High Noon (84)
Oldboy (92)
Yojimbo (94)
The Princess Bride (96)

That makes it 24! Damn! Most of these are from the 50s or earlier, and so not easy to find on the net (or in the local CD store).

Bhavya, ab tumhara kaam karna hi padega! Well, my CD writer has conked out, but since I am relatively much more free now, I'll get it done, for Lawrence of Arabia's sake :)

Arbit, I'll be very grateful if you can get it. Though I have heard that Aneesh Naman has it too (and many other oldies)
