Ný könnun ríkisútvarpssins breska BBC, leiðir í ljós að besta mynd aldarinnar sem við lifum nú á, þeirrar 21., er Mulholland Drive frá árinu 2002 eftir David Lynch.
Þó einungis séu liðin 16% af öldinni, þá streyma fram nýjar kvikmyndir í löngum bunum, og þúsundir mynda hafa verið gerðar það sem af er tímabilinu.
BBC bað 177 kvikmyndagagnrýnendur allstaðar að úr heiminum að búa til lista yfir bestu myndirnar, og úr varð listi 100 mynda, þar sem Mulholland Drive lenti í efsta sæti eins og fyrr sagði. Aðrar myndir á topp 10 voru m.a. In the Mood for Love eftir Wong Kar-wai og Tree of Life eftir Terrence Malick.
Þau ár sem reyndust gjöfulust hvað góðar myndir varðar voru árinu 2012 og 2013, níu myndir hvort ár, en bestu leikstjórarnir miðað við listann eru Wes Anderson, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Christopher Nolan, Coen bræður, Michael Haneke og Paul Thomas Anderson, en hver leikstjóri á þrjár myndir á listanum.
Engin íslensk mynd er á listanum, en Íslendingar hafa þó komið við sögu í einhverjum myndanna, eins og til dæmis Valdís Óskarsdóttir, sem klippti myndina í sjötta sæti, Eternal Sunchine of the Spotless Mind, og hlaut mikið lof fyrir.
