I don’t believe in perfection when it comes to art. Too many different perceptions and criteria relative to the viewer. Any kind of attempt at an objective list of criteria more or less self-defeats the idea of perfection in art by making perfection synonymous with generic.
But some of my favourites have already been mentioned: Vertigo, Rear Window, Notorious, 2001: A Space Oddysey, Blade Runner, Blade Runner 2049, Citizen Kane, RoboCop, Titanic, Casablanca, Fantasia (revised), Sleeping Beauty, Princess Mononoke, When Marnie was There, Akira, Millenium Actress, Hereditary, The Witch, Lawrence of Arabia, Gandhi.
That’s off the top of my head, I have a lot in my top tier, many of which I’m not thinking of at the moment because I’m whiny and forgetful from a man cold. 😄
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
