O Trailers Blog - http://trailersblog.blogspot.com/ - teve a ideia de eleger o melhor filme de sempre (desde 1895 a 2007), por isso seleccionou 22 filmes para ir em votação. Não seleccionou sem mais nem mais nem menos foram seleccionados, escolhemos os filmes mais conceituados (ou famosos) de cada década. O inquérito está na coluna do lado esquerdo do blog.
The Trailers Blog - http://trailersblog.blogspot.com/ -had an idea to make a voting to the best forever movie, so we selected 22 movies ( from 1895 to 2007) to vote. We don't not select without to think, we select the appraised movies (for other words, the famous) of each decade. The web poll is in the left side column from this blog.
