The second edition of 501 Must-See Movies, written by Ronald Bergan (author of
Film), Chris Darke, Rob Hill, Ann Lloyd, Cara Frost-Sharratt, and Paul Frost-Sharratt, features 501 films arranged chronologically within ten categories. Fifty films have been removed, replaced exclusively by titles released after the first edition was published. The book contains only 500 entries, though Kill Bill I and II appear as a single combined entry, making a total of 501 films.
The new additions include Oldboy,
Shaun Of The Dead,
A Cock & Bull Story,
Kill Bill,
Drag Me To Hell,
Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind,
The Dark Knight,
Cache,
Casino Royale, and
The Departed. Unfortunately, among the deletions are classics such as Children Of Paradise, Alexander Nevsky, The Man In The White Suit, The Incredible Shrinking Man, Minority Report, and
The Asphalt Jungle.
