The 100 Years, 100 Movies Challenge

For my movie-related New Year’s Resolution, I decided to craft a challenge for myself that will push me to watch films I would otherwise never check out. Allow me to introduce…

— The 100 Year, 100 Movies Challenge —

I will attempt to watch one new movie from each of the last 100 years of cinema (1924 to 2023). I will provide updates on my progress at the end of every quarter (March, June, September, and December). However, if you want to follow my progress more closely, I will be creating a list of every movie I watch as part of this challenge on my Letterboxd account, which you can find (and follow) here. Otherwise, that’s basically how the challenge works.


Will I achieve a perfect 100%? What classics from before the 1970s should I cross off the list as part of this challenge? (Share them in the comments). If you want to take on this challenge yourself, all I’ll say to you is, “The more the merrier!”
