(January - April 2008) High Noon is a perfect movie and is my favorite of the year. I'm not really a John Wayne fan, but I really loved The Quiet Man! Singin' in the Rain is unforgettable. The Greatest Show on Earth is highly entertaining. Kansas City Confidential is a good example of a film noir thriller. The Lavender Hill Mob is a fun British comedy. A pretty good year overall. 3-D first appeared this year to combat the growing popularity of television.

Top Ten -- Come Back, Little Sheba, The Greatest Show on Earth, High Noon, Kansas City Confidential, The Lavender Hill Mob, Limelight, The Narrow Margin, The Quiet Man, Rashomon, Singin' in the Rain
