Since 1989 the National Film Registry has preserved films in the Library of Congress that are determined to be “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” Every year, they add twenty five films to their archives. Just this week they revealed the list of the next batch of movies which include two from director George Lucas. Sadly I have to admit that I haven’t seen every movie on this list. How many have you seen?
