After seeing this yesterday, I was kind of surprised some of those films weren't already in the archive. For example, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Dirty Harry, and A Christmas Story. Though I am not too surprised because I have looked at the whole list every year, and I think to myself, why isn't this film on it, or why is that film there. These three stand out to me because they are considered classics by most people. The Matrix is another one, lots of people liked it while others not so much. Though of course it has a strong view point on how the world could really be. I guess I am more or less curious what it takes to get in to the archives.

I am surprised that "Sons of the Desert" hasn't been included before.
