"respected" critics--- the best of the year type of list. Of course, 99% were foreign. I also went through Pauline Kael's books, compiling a master list of her favorite films. I combined the lists. Unfortunately, most of them aren't on Netflix. Some are puzzling: Michael Caine's breakout role in "Ipcress File?" Why the heck isn't that available?
Anyhow, it's very frustrating. At present, I have very few dramatic films on Netflix (around 10): almost all my remaining selections are long historical documentaries.
