AFI's 100 Most Inspiring Films of All Time

These 100 movies inspire us, encourage us to make a difference and send us from the theatre with a greater sense of possibility and hope for the future.

The jurors have been asked to consider the following criteria in making their selections:

  • Feature-Length Fiction Film: Narrative format, typically over 60 minutes in length.
  • American Film: English language film with significant creative and/or production elements from the United States.
  • Cheers: Movies that inspire with characters of vision and conviction who face adversity and often make a personal sacrifice for the greater good. Whether these movies end happily or not, they are ultimately triumphant — both filling audiences with hope and empowering them with the spirit of human potential.
  • Legacy: Films whose "cheers" continue to echo across a century of American cinema.

AFI defines an American film as an English language motion picture with significant creative and/or financial production elements from the United States. AFI defines a feature-length film as a motion picture of narrative format that is typically over 60 minutes in length. Only feature-length American films released before January 1, 2005, will be considered.
