10. The Sound of Music (1965)
Critic Rating: 86%
Audience Rating: 91%
This insanely popular musical, with Julie Andrews starring as an exuberant governess to the children of a widowed Naval officer, was the highest grossing film in the year of its release. Furthermore, it was granted ten nominations at the 38th Academy Awards and swept the ceremony with its victories, bagging the Best Picture as well as the Best Director award. Its commercial success coupled with its success in the awards category made it a film that will certainly pass the test of time.
