I expect a few more to be added when I next revisit them...
Nice list. I've seen all but #2 and #3. Persona and Manhattan are great films, but neither is the best of their director. My pick would be ANNIE HALL for Woody and THE SEVENTH SEAL for Bergman. WILD STRAWBERRIES in 2nd place, also better than Persona IMO.
