The Internet Movie Data Base (IMDb.com) and films101.com, two of the many companies that collect movie production and movie goer preferences, produced listings for the Best Movies for 1966. Film critic, Roger Ebert, produced a listing of 378 Best Movies of All Time - and five of the best 1966 movies made his listing. There is fair agreement among the listings, especially for the selections making the top-15. The following listing of top movies for 1966 is compiled from products accredited to the three sources mentioned above. Original trailers are available for all of these movies. . .and are linked to the movie title. Click on the movie poster and enjoy the standard 2-3-minute trailer (or actual scenes) for each movie. Once the video is finished, click your browser Return Arrow or the video player X button, depending upon your browser display. My favorite movie of 1966 was El Dorado. I hope you find one of your favorite movies from 1966 in this listing.
