Em 2015, lancei a mim mesma o desafio de dar gás à minha cultura cinematográfica. A proposta era simples: ver 30 dos melhores filmes de sempre antes de completar 30 anos. Além da conhecida lista de sugestões de Martin Scorsese a um jovem cineasta, que a pretensão não é tanta, coleccionei recomendações dos cinéfilos à minha volta.

Entretanto, a lista tornou-se curta porque surgiram mais recomendações. Não foi possível ignorar os tops do mundo do cinema, opiniões de quem admiro neste mundo, artigos bem fundamentados sobre os filmes que não se pode deixar de ver.

A lista, que começou em 2015, foi actualizada em Setembro de 2019. Alguns títulos já tinham sido vistos (a azul), outros foram entretanto, outros ainda mereceram algumas palavras.
