- 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 masterpiece pretty much wrote the rulebook for any subsequent sci-fi film with aspirations of being taken seriously.
- The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966) Sergio Leone’s so-called Dollars trilogy would launch the career of Clint Eastwood, as well as setting the terms for tense, gritty Wild West action for generations to come.
