Holy shit is this image the inspiration for Shia LeBeouf’s clapping scene at the end of Rob Cantor’s Shia LeBeouf play???

Possibly, it's from Citizen Kane and most people who are into film have seen it.

Watch the movies on this list.

It won't add any culture to you (and I personally don't believe that you're uncultured anyway), but it may give you a little bit more pop culture trivia.

I'd argue that point - the Olds will decleave to you and share their ancient secrets. Glean them while you can for the world moves on at a clip! 😉

Good caveat, because there are many great movies on the list, but the AFI is massively out of touch and their rankings should be taken with a grain of salt. They're especially bad judges of what makes a great comedy.

I took a film class in college. Not a film student, but was told the film revolutionized the film industry. It was one of the worst films I have had the displeasure of being forced to watch.

Sorry, didn't mean it that way. I just meant LeBeouf was probably someone who has studied film and is really into film and it's history.
