Summary by Ground News
Chantal Akerman's 1975 drama becomes first film by a female director to top Sight & Sound magazine's once-a-decade Best Films of All Time poll in 70 years. More than 1,600 film critics, academics, distributors, writers, curators, archivists and programmers voted in the poll, which the BFI-backed publication has been running since 1952. The 2012 winner, Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo, now sits in second place, with Orson Welles' Citizen Kane third and YasujirM Ozu's Tokyo Story fourth.
