'Oz,' '2001,' 'Vertigo' among AFI top genre flicks
LOS ANGELES - Snow White, Dorothy Gale, the HAL 9000 computer, Charles Chaplin's Little Tramp and Marlon Brando's Godfather share top billing among the American Film Institute's best genre movies.
Films featuring those characters were among the No. 1 picks Tuesday on the AFI's top-10 lists of the finest flicks in 10 genres, including mystery, Westerns, sports tales and courtroom dramas.
The winners included "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" for animation; "The Wizard of Oz," featuring Dorothy and her little dog, for fantasy; "2001: A Space Odyssey," with HAL the demented computer, for science fiction; Chaplin's "City Lights" for romantic comedy; and Brando's "The Godfather" for gangster flicks.
The other No. 1 movies: Westerns, "The Searchers"; sports, "Raging Bull"; courtroom drama, "To Kill a Mockingbird"; epics, "Lawrence of Arabia"; and mysteries, "Vertigo."
Not surprisingly, Alfred Hitchcock dominated the mystery category. Besides "Vertigo," he landed three others on that top-10 list: "Rear Window" at No. 3, "North By Northwest" at No. 7 and "Dial M for Murder" at No. 9.
Chaplin's "City Lights" from 1931, one of only two silent films to make the genre lists, was a surprise, beating such popular modern romances as "Annie Hall" (No. 2), "When Harry Met Sally ..." (No. 6) and "Sleepless in Seattle" (No. 10).
"This is why these shows are so important. They keep these films in the cultural conversation," said Bob Gazzale, AFI president. "When 'City Lights' is honoured as the No. one romantic comedy, millions of people will go back and watch it again."
The best genre movies were announced in the CBS special "AFI's 10 Top 10," the latest in the institute's annual best-of shows. The winners were chosen by actors, filmmakers, critics and others in Hollywood from ballots that included 50 nominees in each genre.
Past AFI lists have included rankings of the top-100 American films, comedies, love stories, screen stars and movie quotes.
Walt Disney ruled the animation category. Trailing 1937's "Snow White," the first feature-length animated film, in the top five were the Disney tales "Pinocchio," "Bambi," "The Lion King" and "Fantasia."
Two Disney-Pixar computer-animated comedies made the list, "Toy Story" at No. 6 and "Finding Nemo" at No. 10. The only non-Disney cartoon was "Shrek" at No. 8.
Some filmmakers were confined to their best-known specialties, such as Hitchcock in mysteries and "The Searchers" director John Ford in Westerns. Others landed films in several genres.
Steven Spielberg had Nos. 3 and 8 among epics with "Schindler's List" and "Saving Private Ryan" and No. 3 among sci-fi movies with "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial." Besides "2001," Stanley Kubrick had the No. 4 sci-fi tale with "A Clockwork Orange" and the No. 5 epic with "Spartacus."
Along with "Raging Bull" in sports, Martin Scorsese was on the gangster list with "Goodfellas" at No. 2.
Some actors crossed genre boundaries, too. James Stewart popped up in four categories: Fantasy with "It's a Wonderful Life" (No. 3) and "Harvey" (No. 7); romantic comedy with "The Philadelphia Story" (No. 5); courtroom drama with "Anatomy of a Murder" (No. 7); and mystery with two Hitchcock flicks, "Vertigo" and "Rear Window."
Tom Hanks also made four genres: Fantasy with "Big" (No. 10); romantic comedy with "Sleepless in Seattle"; epics with "Saving Private Ryan"; and animation with "Toy Story," for which he provided lead vocals.
Diane Keaton had films in three categories: Gangster flicks with the two "Godfather" movies (Part II was No. 3 on the list); epics with "Reds" (No. 9); and romantic comedy with "Annie Hall."
Major movie franchises were snubbed as fantasy nominees "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban," "Spider-Man 2," "Batman" and "Superman" failed to make the cut.
Such popular Westerns as "Dances With Wolves" and "The Magnificent Seven" were excluded, while best-picture winners "Chariots of Fire" and "Million Dollar Baby" landed outside the top-10 in the sports category.
Gazzale said part of the fun of the film lists is the debate they prompt over which movies are included and omitted.
"These countdowns are a collective opinion of leaders from across the film community. Any surprise about an omission would be entirely subjective," Gazzale said.

Throughout his foresighted and wandering solo career, guitarist Robin Trower has had to endure innumerable comparisons to Jimi Hendrix, due to his preternatural power to channel Hendrix's bluesy/psychedelic, Fender Strat-fueled playing stylus. Born on March 9, 1945, in Catford, England, Trower spent the early '60s playing guitar in diverse London based outfits; the most successful one existence the R&B chemical group the Paramounts, wHO specialized mostly in covers, only managed to outlet respective singles 'tween 1963 and 1965. It wasn't until 1967 that Trower received his large break however, when he joined Procol Harum. The chemical group had exactly scored a world-wide smash attain with "A Whiter Shade of Pale," but the but job was that the band's drawing card, singer/pianist Gary Brooker, didn't have a proper band to back him. Brooker was antecedently a bandmate of Trower's in the Paramounts, and offered the guitar slot in his new fast-rising project to his old friend. As a termination, Trower appeared on such Procol Harum classics as 1967's Procol Harum, 1968's Shine on Brightly, 1969's A Salty Dog, 1970's Menage (which spawned the popular Trower tune "Whiskey Train"), and 1971's Low Barricades.
Patch Procol Harum helped set in motion Trower's vocation, the guitarist realised there was circumscribed space for his guitar work, and eventually left field for a solo career. Enlisting singer/bassist James Dewar and drummer Reg Isidore (wHO was presently replaced by Bill Lordan) as a mount band, Trower issued his solo debut, Double Removed From Yesterday, in 1973. The record album scantily left wing a dent in the U.S. charts, but that would change before long enough with his following release, 1974's Span of Sighs. With rock fans soundless reeling from Hendrix's death a few old age earlier, the album sounded eerily like to the later guitarist's work with the Jimi Hendrix Experience (specially his 1968 release, Electrical Ladyland), and as a termination, the album sky rocketed into the U.S. Top Ten, peaking at number seven-spot.
Although Span of Sighs was to be his most popular solo spill, Trower's stock continued to rise passim the mid-'70s, as he became an arena headliner on the strength of such collide with albums as 1975's For Earth Below, 1976's Turdus migratorius Trower Live!, and Long Misty Days, plus 1977's In City Dreams. Further releases followed, notwithstanding by the dawn of the '80s, it became quite obvious that Trower's star was quickly fading, as each album sold less than its predecessor. A brief conglutination with ex-Cream bassist/vocalist Jack Bruce spawned a pair off of releases, 1981's B.L.T. and 1982's Truce, before Trower returned back to his solo career.
The '80s byword Trower try and expand his audience with several releases that attempted to update his blues-rock style (such as 1987's slickness produced Rage), simply none returned the guitar player back to the top of the inning of the charts. During the early '90s, Trower returned back to Procol Harum for a brief reunification (1991's Prodigal Stranger), before support ex-Roxy Music isaac Bashevis Singer Bryan Ferry on a few releases (1993's Cab and 1994's Mamouna, the latter of which Trower earned a co-producer credit entry for). Trower continued to yield solo albums in the 21st c (2000's Go My Way), piece a steady stream of live sets and compilations appeared. Trower returned to put to work with Ferry formerly more on 2002's Frenzied, over again earning a production recognition. Reassembling almost of his late-'80s band, Trower released Living Out of Time in 2004 and returned with Some other Days Blues in late 2005.
