I finally got around to looking at their list.
"Tootsie"?!! Seriously?!! Proof that the AFI folks aren't infallible. That was one of the dumbest films ever, ranking right up there with "Space Balls" and "Earth Girls Are Easy". Really, if they're going to include "Tootsie", they should include "What About Bob?" and "Groundhog Day", both of which are much better works than "Tootsie". It's sad to see that some of those flicks had to be included just to get to 100.
Reading the intro to the piece, it's also sad to see this political drivel:
"... these lists reflect that intolerable truth. AFI acknowledges its responsibility in curating these lists that has reinforced this marginality and looks forward to releasing new lists that will embrace our modern day and drive culture forward. "
Eye-yie-yie. More political crap. I thought we were over all this racial crap.
