How this ranking was built

Compiled 2026-10-23. IndieWire published the list on 2024-08-12. The page was modified on 2024-08-14. The window is films of 2000–2009, ordered by IndieWire’s editors in 2024. The main table is all 100 ranks.

Chinese and Russian titles prefer a Wikidata label whose release year matches the list. Where no Chinese label matched, the cell keeps the IndieWire English title: The Beaches of Agnès、La Ciénaga、Y tu mamá también、Los Angeles Plays Itself、Moolaadé、Playing、Frownland、As I Was Moving Ahead Occasionally I Saw Brief Glimpses of Beauty、The Father of My Children、Tarnation. 2046 is titled 2046. No. 16 is one row for Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy, with the year span 2001–2003, not three separate ranks.
