Shows the answer, then moves on
  • Each film appears in turn. Click its list, or press its number.
  • The groups never move, so the number keys are quick.
  • Skip (0) sends a prompt to the back of the queue.
  • Pause whenever you like (Esc). The board hides while the clock is stopped.

Which AFI list is the film on? The groups appear when you start.

About this quiz

Four of the American Film Institute's lists of 100, published between 2000 and 2006. A film can sit on several of them, so this quiz only asks about films that are on one and no other.

  • 100 films are in the pool: up to 25 from each list, taken from the top down.
  • A film that is on two of the four lists is never asked.
  • The film's rank on its list is shown after each pick.
