Some films on this list have most of these characteristics; other films are commercially made films, produced by mainstream studios, that nevertheless bear the hallmarks of a director's "auteur" style, or which have an experimental character.
Neki filmovi na ovom popisu imaju takve karakteristike; drugi filmovi su komercijalno producirani od strane mainstream studija koji bez obzira na to nose obilježja redateljskog "autorskog" stila, ili imaju eksperimentalni karakter.
