UPDATED: It's surprising to see Bringing Out the Dead, a critical and box-office disappointment upon its release, beat out an established classic like Vertigo. But then, was met with a mixed response as well, and it took decades for the film to be recognized as the masterpiece that it is. So while my choice would have been Vertigo, I think that Alfred Hitchcock himself would have appreciated the irony of the outcome.

The third round begins shortly, and from now on, each match will last for two days rather than one. Forty films have been whittled down to ten - who will survive and what will be left of them?
