The best film ever to have been made is Orson Welles' Citizen Kane, according to a new poll.
The British Film Institute's Sight & Sound magazine polled both international film critics and directors to discover their top 10 films.
Citizen Kane has topped the Sight & Sound Critics' Poll for the last four decades.
The critics kept Vertigo in second place, but the directors put The Godfather and The Godfather Part II as the number two best films of all time.
Films appearing in both the directors' and critics' top tens include La Regle du jeu (Renoir) and 8-1/2 (Fellini).
The twin polls are held every ten years, with contributions from leading figures in the film world such as Quentin Tarantino, Michael Mann, Bernardo Bertolucci, Tim Robbins, Sam Mendes and Cameron Crowe.
Around 250 of the world's leading critics and directors nominated more than 700 different films in the polls.
The critics' Top Ten Films were: 1, Citizen Kane (Welles) 1941; 2, Vertigo (Hitchcock) 1958; 3, La Regle du Jeu (Renoir) 1939; 4, The Godfather and The Godfather Part II (Coppola) 1972, 1974; 5, Tokyo Story (Ozu) 1953; 6, 2001: A Space Odyssey (Kubrick) 1968; 7, Sunrise (Murnau) 1927; 8, Battleship Potemkin (Eisenstein) 1925; 9, 8-1/2 (Fellini) 1963; and 10, Singin' in the Rain (Kelly, Donen) 1951.
Directors' Top Ten Films were: 1, Citizen Kane (Welles) 1941; 2, The Godfather and The Godfather Part II (Coppola) 1972, 1974; 3, 8-1/2 (Fellini) 1963; 4, Lawrence of Arabia (Lean) 1962; 5, Dr Strangelove (Kubrick) 1963; 6, Bicycle Thieves (De Sica) 1948; 7, Raging Bull (Scorsese) 1980; 8, Vertigo (Hitchcock) 1958; 9, Rashomon (Kurosawa) 1950; La Regle du jeu (Renoir) 1939; Seven Samurai (Kurosawa) 1954 (Three films share equal ninth place, therefore there is no 10th placed film).
