British Film Institute list of the 50 films you should see by the age of 14

The 50 films you should see by the age of 14 is a list created by the British Film Institute in 2005 in order to inspire parents and educators to take movies as seriously as books and other kinds of art. It was created by more than 70 experts including film producers, teachers, authors and critics who all made their own top ten.

Most of the movies are made in other countries, so English-speaking children will need subtitles for many titles.

The film registering the most votes was "Spirited Away", which won the Academy Award for best animated feature in 2003.

The top ten

# Bicycle Thieves (1948)
# E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
# Kes (1969)
# Les Quatre Cents Coups (1959)
# The Night of the Hunter (1955)
# Show Me Love (1998)
